From 2013 to 2017, the USAID-funded Leadership, Management, and Governance (LMG) Project has provided technical assistance to seven National Malaria Control Programs (NMCPs), through the placement of long-term technical advisors, in Burundi, Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Guinea, Lao PDR, Liberia, and Sierra Leone.
The LMG/NMCP Project’s experience suggested that this technical assistance model could
be utilized in a variety of contexts. This technical highlight summarizes the key structures, required skills sets, and best practices to ensure effective long-term technical assistance for NMCPs.
