Image shows four interlinked lakes in Kosi Bay, Maputuland area of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa with the Indian Ocean in the background. The lakes are part of the Greater St Lucia Wetland Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Regulated subsistence fishing is an activity of the population at this site, which is adjacent to the Indian Ocean malaria site of the pilot study. Image courtesy of Josef Röllin.
