If other projects, including projects to promote economic growth, can be demonstrated to be very or more-cost effective at saving lives (than funding and distributing long-lasting insecticidal nets) I would be interested in supporting them.
The problem we have today is people falling ill with, and dying from, malaria. Currently, the bednet is the most effective way of preventing that so it seems good and sensible to put funds into distributing nets.
My over-riding thought is that protecting people from malaria is a humanitarian issue first, and then an economic one, and whilst I would be interested in actions that drive economic growth, I would also want to support actions and interventions that improve health outcomes (saves lives, reduce illness) in the near and medium-term.
I’d be interested to read more about that.
