Angola

How We Do It

A dedicated staff of 38 nationals and three expatriates enables MENTOR to successfully implement its activities in Angola.  Close collaboration with government partners at the NMCP and other national and international entities engaged in malaria control activities ensures that MENTOR is “plugged-in” to positively influence control efforts and shape national control policies and protocols.

At the provincial level, capacity building of public and private healthcare staff and the comprehensive involvement of community members in prevention activities relies on co-participation from local NMCP officials and local NGOs like the Angolan Red Cross and Advance Angola.  With strong partnerships forged, MENTOR advances to empower Angolans and ensure sustainable solutions.

The Way Forward

As the Angolan health infrastructure slowly regenerates, MENTOR remains at the forefront of malaria control activities, implementing strategies that involve players from local to national levels. MENTOR will press forward in its commitment, positively affecting change and equipping healthcare providers and the communities they serve with the knowledge and tools required to successfully combat malaria in Angola.
