Section Progresso:

To provide the necessary support, you need a clear, detailed understanding of the communities you serve and the factors that influence malaria control and prevention in those communities. Reference the Situational Analysis section for more guidance on questions to ask to understand these issues best.

Think of the members/beneficiaries your organization serves and brainstorm groups that might practice or influence malaria behaviors (examples: rural mothers of children under five, male heads of household in peri-urban communities, urban adolescents).

Select a group to be your target audience (examples above). An ideal group is one that malaria significantly impacts and can either perform the desired behavior or has the power to facilitate someone else’s behavior. Your organization also must have a unique ability to reach and influence this group. The resource “How to Conduct an Audience Analysis” is excellent to use when looking more closely at your audiences.
