abstract: Malaria remains a major health and development challenge in the sub-Saharan African economies
including Kenya, yet it can be prevented. Technologies to prevent malaria are available but are not universally
adopted by male- and female-headed households. The study thus, examined the role of gender in malaria prevention,
examining adoption behaviour between male- and female-headed households in Kenya.
