Pauline has lost six of her seven children to malaria, the leading killer of children in her district. Inspired to fight the disease, her sister, Veronique, became a health volunteer. Now she is teaching people in her community about ways to prevent malaria, including by properly using mosquito nets, which are soon to be distributed throughout the country by UNICEF, in partnership with the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, as well as the Government of Chad.
