Abstract

Malaria is one of the most contagious diseases which is still a public health problem in the world including Indonesia. The prevalence of malaria in Indonesia is 6.0 percent, with malaria endemic areas spread from east to west. Statistical data describes Lampung as an endemic area with the highest point in Sukajaya Lempasing village, Pesawaran. The high incidence of malaria in the village is caused by the lack of community’s role to eradicate malaria. Therefore, it is necessary to create an appropriate solution to optimize the role of community in malaria eradication. In order to optimize the role of Sukajaya Lempasing village community, we formed  a group of agent named BOM PASSION. BOM PASSION agents serve as promoter of malaria prevention as well as implementing BOM PASSION program to suppress malaria incidence rate.  The program will be consist of junk bank, Nila fish farming, and the making of peripheral blood smear preparations. Selected agents are agents that suitable with the criteria: 25-45 years old and want to attend counseling and training on malaria. Counseling and training are given in 5 stages (malaria, junk bank and  mosquito nets counseling also training of how to make peripheral blood smear preparations and  nila fish farming). In every stage of counseling and training, agents are required to do pretest and post test to assess the changes of their knowledge. After counseling and training have been completed, evaluation and  agents confirmation is carried out. The result of this program is in the form of agents consist of 25 people that divided into five divisions such as core comitte, junk bank, Nila fish farming, blood smear preparations, and field coordination. The agents are able to promote malaria prevention and carry out the whole program of BOM PASSION systematically resulting in a decrease of malaria incidance rate.
