The Consortium for National Health Research (CNHR). This is a Kenyan nongovernmental organization whose mission is to contribute to the strengthening of national research for health in Kenya.
The Malaria Public Health & Epidemiology Group (MPHEG) initiated an international initiative called the Malaria Atlas Project (MAP) in 2005. The aim of MAP is to assemble, curate and geo-locate malariometric data and process these data using model-based geostatistical methods to provide a range of risk maps for international agencies, national governments and research purposes.
By 2014 MAP intends to produce a definitive set of historical and contemporary maps of malaria risk across Africa. This research programme will require a large data gathering and GIS effort to meet its ambitions. The KEMRI – Wellcome Trust Programme is therefore seeking to appoint a new position to provide technical support in preparation for the final MAP-Africa products over the next two years.
