WS 10 - Neglected Tropical Diseases in the Context of the WHO-NTD-Roadmap 2030

The signatories of the Kigali Declaration commit to play their part at global, regional, national, community and partnership levels to eradicate, eliminate or control neglected tropical diseases by 2030. One of the examples: Schistosomiasis. We will use the example of Schistosomiasis (worldwide, schistosomiasis a waterborne disease caused by parasitic worms alone affects more than 240 million people) to describe what is being done to get closer to the goal of elimination. Core strategic interventions like preventive chemotherapy, WASH, vector control, veterinary public health or case management will be in the focus. Partnerships with non-governmental organizations and the private sector are supporting this. What role can Germany play in the global NTD effort? How is research integrated? The Kigali Declaration - published 27.01.2022 - is a declaration of intent by partners from industry, donor countries, NTD-endemic countries, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), philanthropists and research institutions. The Kigali Declaration builds on the London Declaration on Neglected Tropical Diseases of 2012 and aims to support the World Health Organization's Roadmap for NTD Control.
