Understanding the China-Tanzania Malaria Control Project: lessons learned from a multi-stakeholder qualitative study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Tanzania is among the countries with the highest malaria cases and deaths worldwide, where vulnerable populations have been severely affected due to poverty and weakness in health system and infrastructure. The China-Tanzania Malaria Control Project (the Project) was a two-phase global health intervention project implemented between 2015 and 2021 that aimed to transfer project-designated intervention experience in malaria elimination to the Tanzanian health system. This study aims to identify the barriers and facilitators encountered during the Project and to improve our understanding of the emerging phenomenon of South-South global health collaboration.

Methods

We conducted thematic analysis of qualitative data collected from a purposive sample of 14 participants
