About the event

This is the second edition of the InCORNTD and this meeting aims to bring together key stakeholders to address how to eliminate NTDs from the African region through operational and carefully focused research.

The objectives of this meeting are two-fold: 1) to inform the NTD community about new research results and 2) to prioritize remaining operational research questions, the list of which will be shared with donors for funding consideration. Topics during the meeting will include but are not limited to: schistosomiasis diagnostics, monitoring and elimination guidelines, new tools and approaches for onchocerciasis elimination, skin NTD integration, last mile of trachoma elimination, harmonizing geostatistical tools and artificial intelligence for NTDs and integrated xenomonitoring for lymphatic filariasis.

You can share the challenges you are facing in eliminating NTDs that may benefit from a breakout session discussion or operational research via this survey (en français, em português, in English) by August 31, 2024.
