Dengue-Free New Caledonia: Our Wolbachia Success

The World Mosquito Program's Wolbachia method has transformed public health in New Caledonia, with no dengue epidemics since 2019. This video showcases how our natural, self-sustaining solution has protected communities across Nouméa, Mont-Dore, Dumbéa, and Païta through strong partnerships with local government, businesses, and health authorities. What began in March 2018 as an innovative project has become a resounding success, with 86% of mosquitoes now carrying Wolbachia. Hear from community leaders and partners about the economic benefits, environmental advantages, and most importantly, the lives saved through this groundbreaking approach to mosquito-borne disease prevention. The programme demonstrates how our Wolbachia method can be implemented in diverse settings, potentially serving as a model for other French territories struggling with dengue outbreaks.
