Using large household surveys collected in 19 countries between 2000 and 2015, we estimate the correlation between the distribution of bednets and the progress in child survival. We find that the large increase in bednets ownership observed between 2000 and 2015 is associated with a decrease in infant mortality by 1.3pp, which amounts to one third of the total decrease in infant mortality over the period. We further discuss to which extent this correlation might be interpreted as a causal impact. specialized MORTALITE INFANTILE PALUDISME LUTTE POLITIQUE DE SANTE AIDE AU DEVELOPPEMENT ECONOMIE DE LA SANTE AFRIQUE SUBSAHARIENNE 095DEVEL 052ANOPAL04 108DEMOG1 Paris PSE 2017 2017-2 24 multigr. 24 multigr. 24 multigr. https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010069948 [F B010069948] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010069948 https://horizon.documentation.ird.fr/exl-doc/pleins_textes/divers17-06/010069948.pdf IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2017-06-29 2019-09-29 fdi:010069948 fre
