Breakthrough ACTION-Nigeria, in collaboration with the United States President’s Malaria Initiative (PMI), worked with the Nigeria National Malaria Elimination Programme (NMEP) and other partners to implement social and behavior change (SBC) programs across a third of Nigeria’s 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory. Through community engagement, provider behavior change initiatives, and widespread media campaigns, Breakthrough ACTION-Nigeria and the NMEP ensured communities and health care workers were motivated to prevent, test, and accurately treat malaria.
