1. Have you ever considered buying long-lasting, insecticidal (sprayed with an insecticide) nets, which last 4 to 5 years, for the villagers in Keur Se Daro?
We buy nets with insecticide. I'm not sure about the longevity of the impregnation.
2. Do you know how much these nets would cost?
I don't have specific information for different nets than the usual we buy...
3. How many nets would we buy (ideally)?
I would say at least 40, but I also think you could budget for more. It will be a discussion with the women in the village. As you will realize the distribution could be unpredictable. There is also a neighboring village, which would also benefit from the nets.
4. What is the system for distribution of nets (i.e. who gets priority for nets)?
Either by us, us in combination with members of the village.
5. Are insecticidal nets available for purchase at the place you usually buy the nets in Senegal? (If not, two of our group members have found an organization that sells insecticidal nets in groups of 50.)
I think it would be good to buy 50. Do you know how much space 50 nets would occupy. We would transport the nets in our luggage. It can sometimes take several trips to the pharmacy to get the total number of nets. Be in touch again, Katarina
