Professional Training On “Advanced Field Epidemiology & Surveillance for Malaria Elimination”

Join our intensive 2-week professional training on Advanced GIS Mapping for Malaria Surveillance & Elimination in Bangkok. Designed for healthcare and public health professionals, this course provides hands-on skills in spatial epidemiology, GIS-based risk mapping, AI-powered outbreak prediction, and real-time malaria tracking. Enhance your expertise with field applications, remote sensing, and policy integration aligned with WHO’s malaria elimination goals.

Malaria remains a significant public health challenge, particularly in endemic regions across Africa, Southeast Asia, and South America. Despite global progress in reducing malaria-related mortality, the disease continues to affect millions, with emerging threats such as drug resistance, climate change, vector adaptation, and cross-border transmission complicating elimination efforts.

The World Health Organization (WHO), along with global health initiatives, has set ambitious targets for malaria elimination by 2030, requiring a shift from control measures to complete eradication strategies. A key component of this shift is the strengthening of field epidemiology and surveillance systems, which provide the foundation for disease tracking, early outbreak detection, and rapid response interventions.

CTB Thailand’s 12 Days Comprehensive Training On “Advanced Field Epidemiology & Surveillance for Malaria Elimination” equip healthcare professionals with the latest epidemiological methods, real-time surveillance technologies, and field investigation techniques. Participants will engage in hands-on data collection, GIS-based risk mapping, molecular surveillance, and entomological studies, ensuring they gain the skills needed to enhance malaria surveillance programs, improve case detection, and implement data-driven interventions at both national and regional levels.

Through expert-led discussions, interactive workshops, and field-based learning, participants will be empowered to contribute strategically to malaria elimination programs, aligning their work with global best practices and national elimination frameworks.
