Climate-smart strategies constitute an essential innovation for integrating sustainable insect vector control with agricultural resilience. By uniting ecological design, adaptive land-water management, and inclusive community action, they address the root environmental determinants of malaria rather than merely its symptoms. Agroforestry and diversified farming systems create multifunctional landscapes that regulate microclimates, conserve biodiversity, and minimize mosquito proliferation. Incorporating climate-informed surveillance and predictive modeling ensures timely interventions under changing climatic regimes. Embedding these approaches within public-health and agricultural planning frameworks supported by policy coherence and local participation can achieve durable malaria reduction while enhancing food security and climate adaptation. Ultimately, mainstreaming climate-smart vector control strengthens both ecosystem and human resilience in the Anthropocene.BOOK CHAPTERS 2026 READY.docx 17
