Malaria Control Program

The Innovative Vector Control Consortium, or IVCC, is a not-for-profit product development partnership designed to facilitate the development and delivery of new and improved vector control tools to prevent malaria and other neglected tropical diseases. Founded in 2005 and headquartered in Liverpool, United Kingdom, with additional offices in Washington, D.C. and staff in several other countries, IVCC develops and delivers novel vector control insecticides and tools to combat malaria and other vector-borne diseases. Its work includes screening compounds for public health applications, creating diagnostic systems to detect insecticide resistance, establishing testing facilities and field trial sites, and supporting national malaria control programs with disease management systems and implementation monitoring tools.

Delivers Practice

Entity-backed identity for the program-kind enum value this public health program already carries, resolved to a health practice by an explicit value-to-entity map (phase 3 bucket conversion, docs\design_entity_backed_browse_buckets_20260928.md). The program-kind fact itself stays on the program unchanged.
