5.18. Please rate the following needs for mosquito control in your country (on a Likert scale) in terms of importance. Resources. Need for better evidence on how investing in mosquito control has a public health benefit; Need for more funding (for staff, consumables); Need for more training of human resources (irrespective of funding for mosquito control being available, there is not enough knowledge and capacity); Responsibilities: Need for a dedicated (national) agency for mosquito control; Need for clarity about competencies (Who is responsible for what?); Coordination: Need for more international coordination between countries; Need for more (national) coordination between sub-national actors within the same sector; Need for development of multisector collaboration; Need for more collaboration between health institutes and
