Monitoring and Evaluating the Impact of National School-Based Deworming in Kenya : Study Design and Baseline Results

An increasing number of countries in Africa and elsewhere are developing national plans for the control of neglected tropical diseases. A key component of such plans is school-based deworming (SBD) for the control of soil-transmitted helminths (STHs) and schistosomiasis. Monitoring and evaluation (M...
