    Neftaly Goal: Protecting 95% of the Targeted Population with Effective Vector Control Interventions by 2017

    Vector control remains a cornerstone in the fight against malaria, directly reducing transmission by targeting the mosquitoes that spread the disease. Neftaly is dedicated to supporting Namibia’s malaria elimination efforts by ensuring:

    At least 95% of the targeted population is protected with at least one appropriate vector control intervention by 2017.

    Key Vector Control Interventions

    1. Long-Lasting Insecticidal Nets (LLINs)

    • Wide-scale distribution of LLINs to vulnerable groups, including children under five and pregnant women
    • Regular community campaigns to replace worn-out nets and promote consistent, correct usage
    • Community education to increase net care and usage rates

    2. Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS)

    • Annual IRS campaigns conducted with high coverage in malaria-endemic areas
    • Training and equipping spray teams to ensure effective application and safety
    • Monitoring insecticide resistance and adapting strategies accordingly

    3. Environmental Management and Larval Source Control

    • Community mobilization for environmental cleanup to reduce mosquito breeding sites
    • Promotion of drainage, water management, and other habitat reduction techniques where applicable

    Strategies for Achieving High Coverage

    • Collaborate with regional and district health authorities to plan and implement vector control campaigns
    • Engage community leaders and health workers to build trust and acceptance of interventions
    • Use data-driven targeting to prioritize high-risk populations and geographic hotspots
    • Strengthen supply chains to ensure uninterrupted availability of vector control commodities
    • Monitor coverage and effectiveness through household surveys and entomological surveillance

    Expected Impact

    Achieving 95% coverage with vector control interventions will:

    • Substantially reduce malaria transmission and incidence
    • Protect vulnerable populations, lowering morbidity and mortality rates
    • Support Namibia’s progress toward malaria elimination and sustainable control
    • Contribute to healthier communities and stronger health systems

    Neftaly: Empowering Communities Through TB and TB/HIV Education

    At Neftaly, we believe that information saves lives. By providing accurate, relevant, and accessible information on tuberculosis (TB) and TB/HIV co-infection, we empower individuals and communities to take informed action—reducing stigma, improving health outcomes, and supporting the journey toward TB elimination.

    Our Mission

    To ensure that every person affected by TB, their families, and the wider community have the knowledge they need to understand, prevent, and manage TB and TB/HIV.

    What We Do

    1. Develop and Disseminate Culturally Appropriate Information

    We create TB and TB/HIV educational materials in local languages and formats that are culturally sensitive and easy to understand. This includes:

    • Printed materials (flyers, posters, brochures)
    • Audio-visual content (videos, radio spots, animations)
    • Digital campaigns (SMS alerts, social media, mobile apps)

    2. Engage Communities Through Awareness Campaigns

    Neftaly organizes targeted outreach initiatives, including:

    • Community dialogues and town hall meetings
    • Health talks in schools, churches, and workplaces
    • TB awareness events on World TB Day and beyond

    3. Educate People Diagnosed with TB and Their Families

    We ensure that people with TB understand:

    • Their diagnosis and treatment plan
    • The importance of treatment adherence
    • How to reduce transmission in households and communities
    • TB/HIV co-infection risks and available support services

    4. Promote TB/HIV Integration in Information Delivery

    TB and HIV are closely linked. We provide combined information that helps people:

    • Understand how HIV increases TB risk
    • Access integrated screening, care, and treatment services
    • Reduce stigma associated with both conditions
    • Navigate available social and health support systems

    5. Train Community Health Workers as Information Ambassadors

    We equip local health workers and peer educators with accurate knowledge and communication skills to:

    • Conduct household education visits
    • Lead small-group discussions
    • Dispel myths and correct misinformation
    • Refer individuals to appropriate TB/HIV services

    Why It Matters

    • Informed communities are more likely to seek care early
    • Reduced stigma encourages treatment completion and contact tracing
    • Empowered individuals can protect themselves and support others
    • Better understanding leads to stronger partnerships between health systems and the public
  • Neftaly Reduce the risk of HIV and STI transmission for key populations by improving access to prevention programmes and improving links to appropriate clinical services

    Neftaly: Reducing HIV and STI Transmission Risks Among Key Populations

    Overview

    Key populations—including men who have sex with men (MSM), transgender people, sex workers, people who inject drugs, and others—bear a disproportionate burden of HIV and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Barriers such as stigma, discrimination, and limited access to tailored services increase their vulnerability. Neftaly is committed to reducing HIV and STI transmission risks by expanding access to comprehensive prevention programs and strengthening linkages to appropriate clinical services for these populations.

    Goal

    To reduce new HIV and STI infections among key populations by enhancing access to effective prevention interventions and ensuring timely linkage to quality clinical care.

    Strategic Objectives

    1. Expand Access to Comprehensive Prevention Programs

    • Scale up availability of condoms and lubricants, clean needles, and other harm reduction supplies tailored to key populations.
    • Promote pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP), and regular HIV/STI screening within community and clinical settings.
    • Deliver culturally sensitive and rights-based behavioral interventions focused on risk reduction, empowerment, and health education.
    • Utilize peer-led outreach and digital platforms to reach hidden or hard-to-reach populations effectively.

    2. Strengthen Linkages to Clinical Services

    • Improve referral systems to ensure seamless and timely access from prevention programs to HIV testing, STI diagnosis and treatment, and HIV care and treatment services.
    • Build capacity of healthcare providers to offer key population-friendly, stigma-free clinical services including comprehensive sexual and reproductive health care.
    • Integrate HIV and STI services within broader health programs to provide holistic care.

    3. Foster Community Engagement and Ownership

    • Support key population-led organizations in designing, implementing, and monitoring prevention and care programs.
    • Promote community mobilization and advocacy to reduce stigma and improve the enabling environment for service uptake.
    • Engage key populations in peer education and support networks to enhance adherence and retention in prevention and care.

    4. Utilize Strategic Information for Program Improvement

    • Collect and analyze data on HIV/STI prevalence, service uptake, and barriers to care among key populations.
    • Use evidence to tailor interventions, optimize resource allocation, and inform policy and program decisions.
    • Monitor and evaluate program impact to ensure continuous quality improvement.

    Expected Outcomes

    • Increased uptake of effective HIV and STI prevention methods among key populations.
    • Enhanced linkage and retention of key populations in clinical care services.
    • Reduced incidence of HIV and STIs within targeted groups.
    • Strengthened community-led responses and improved health equity.

    Conclusion

    Neftaly’s commitment to improving prevention access and clinical service linkages is central to reducing HIV and STI transmission among key populations. Through integrated, community-centered approaches, we strive to empower vulnerable groups to protect their health and uphold their rights, contributing to a sustainable and inclusive HIV response.
