Malaria Control Project, a CSR Program by Marathon Oil Corporation

"In 2003, Marathon, in collaboration with its business partners, the government of Equatorial Guinea, and international non-profit and research organizations, launched a $15.8 million effort to reduce the transmission of malaria on Bioko Island. The innovative approach to malaria eradication goes beyond focusing on a single cause and addresses the numerous and diverse factors leading to malaria transmission. Project interventions include:

Indoor residual spraying provided to every house on the island.

Door-to-door bed net distribution providing coverage to over 111,000 beds.

Malaria testing and treatment provided free of charge at local health centers.

Improved national health information system to monitor health risks.

An innovative information, education and communication campaign to educate the public on malaria and prevention strategies.

An extensive surveillance and monitoring system to provide real time data on the program and to serve as a warning against future outbreaks."
