The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Mission in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania is publishing this Request for Information (RFI) to obtain information and inputs from all capable and interested entities for the anticipated USAID Malaria Vector Control Activity designed to identify and implement proven, evidence-based vector control approaches in Tanzania, in support of reducing the overall malaria burden, and moving Tanzania closer to malaria elimination. The purpose of the activity is to identify and implement proven, evidence-based vector control
approaches in Tanzania, in support of reducing the overall malaria burden, and moving Tanzania
closer to malaria elimination. This activity does not include implementation of indoor residual
spraying (IRS) or larval source management. The activity has three primary components: (1)
Insecticide-treated mosquito net (ITN) distribution, (2) Social and behavior change (SBC) for ITN
use and other vector control interventions, and (3) Entomology Monitoring, and use of data to
provide quality technical expertise to the Government of Tanzania and malaria partners on
technical guidance concerning new developments in vector control, and as appropriate, develop
plans for implementation of modified or new vector control approaches in Tanzania.
