In 2009, Malaria Consortium received a special initiative grant from the UK charity Comic Relief to set up the Pioneer project in Uganda. 18 months after initial net distribution, Malaria Consortium teams visited families to see what impact the nets had had on their lives.

One of the aims of the project was to interrupt the transmission of malaria through mass distribution of long-lasting insecticide treated nets (LLINs) to every household in four districts of western Uganda. Malaria Consortium's Hoima office was established in 2009 and works closely with the Ministry of Health to distribute nets to districts in the region with the highest disease burden.
