    “Many studies have attempted to optimize the output of the Malaria program by empowering the local communities and non-government organizations simultaneously (Chang, 2020; Andrew et al., 2019; Zorte and Plaza, 2017). Meanwhile, local community activities and social backgrounds in fields vary, which leads to variations in the output achievement (Zahra, 2021; Marck, 2019). However, only few studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of the number of activities and social determinants of the local community or health volunteers. “

  • Methods include design, hypothesis (if applicable), population and sample OR Informants and respondents, data sources, technique or instrument of data collection, and data analysis procedures or design. The methodology should be reproducible for similar study. It is recommended that the methodology section be divided into several sections: Research design, data collection, data analysis.
