EANMAT, the East African Network for Monitoring Anti-malarial Treatment is a regional body operating under the ministries of health for Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania mainland, Zanzibar Island, Rwanda and Burundi.

 

EANMAT's aims are:

  1. To detect, map and monitor the sensitivity of P. falciparum to various anti-malarial drugs in East Africa using standardised methods.
  2. To identify factors enhancing the emergence of rapid spread of resistance to anti-malarial drugs in the sub-region.
  3. To detect and characterise drug resistance genotypes of P. falciparum within the sub-region.
  4. To ensure quality-assured monitoring and constant harmonisation of new standards of efficacy testing of more complex drugs using revised WHO day 28-minimun evaluation criteria

We wish to provide information to the scientific community interested in malaria control and specifically those interested in anti-malarial drug policy within the Eastern Africa region and beyond.
