Malaria is a serious health and economic problem in Africa, afflicting more than half of the continent's population. Although HICV/AIDS, TB and nutritional deficiencies pose major development problems on the continent, the challenges presented by malaria are of a different kind, because the disease is widespread, persistent and grossly underestimated by the general population. The importance of malaria, along with HIV/AIDS and other diseases in the development agenda, is now recognised in Goal 6 of the Millennium Goals. This book provides the evidence required to design and implement malaria control strategies in Africa. The chapters analyse the nexus between poverty and malaria with a focus on policies that can be implemented at various levels of society to fight the disease. Malaria and Poverty in Africa is the outcome of a research sponsored by the African Economic Research Consortium (AERC). Augustin Kwasi Fosu is the Director, Economic Division of the United Nations Commision for Africa, Addis Ababa, and former Director of Research at the AERC, Nairobi. Germano Mwabu is Professor of Economics at the University of Nairobi. He was co-director of the AERC project on Poverty Income Distribution and Labour Markets in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Poverty reduction is the overarching challenge of the African development agenda in the 21st Century. The majority of the African people today continue to live in poverty, as they did for decades in the previous century. The design of effective strategies to fight poverty in Africa has been hampered by lack of credible information on incidence, depth and severity of poverty and by non-availability of methods for policy analysis. Poverty in Africa: Analytical and Policy Perspectives presents comprehensive information about the extent of poverty in Africa, the institutional constraints to poverty reduction, and the methods for measuring poverty and evaluating alternative anti-poverty measures. This volume offers a range of new tools for monitoring poverty and assessing impacts of anti-poverty programs. Although poverty reduction in Africa has been a daunting task for years, the approaches to poverty analysis presented in this book now make that task much more manageable. This volume adds value to the existing literature by presenting concepts and methods for poverty analysis in a single source and by documenting them for students, scholars and policy-makers, especially those in Africa where the challenge of poverty reduction is greatest.
