Introduction: The present study aims to be carried out in the Bagira health zone in the Democratic Republic of Congo and aims to determine the factors that influence access to health services for children under 5 years of age suffering from malaria in this zone. Specifically, the study will describe the therapeutic route for children under 5 with malaria, identify the specific determinants of the use of health services in the Health Zone by these children and will suggest prospects for improving the access to health care and services. Methodology: The study will be cross-sectional, consisting of a household survey of children who had a fever episode during 2019 in the Bagira Health Zone. The data collected will be mainly analyzed using the Logit multinomial model in order to identify the specific determinants of access to health services by the study population.
