2026Open accessUniversity for Development Studies

ITN ownership and use among Fulani pregnant women were far below national and global targets. Possession did not translate into consistent use. Strengthened health education and tailored, mobile-responsive distribution strategies are essential to improve malaria prevention in this underserved population.
