The Free From Malaria Comic
|
|
Free From
Malaria is a free comic
available for download and printing. The comic teaches
children how Malaria is spread by mosquitoes and how to
recognise its symptoms. It enforces the importance of
getting early treatment and using insecticide treated
nets.
The narrative is based on warm illustrations (by Joanna
Scott) and helps children visualize how the disease
spreads within the body.
To read more about how and why we created the project,
please follow the blog.
