成功的公共-私营卫生控制伙伴关系通常包括非政府发展组织(NGDO)，这些组织长期以来一直站在确定特定社会和健康问题的前列。非常成功的盘尾丝虫病控制和消除方案就是一个很好的例子。非营利组织是在西非早期倡导控制盘尾丝虫病的推动力，最终促成了盘尾丝虫病控制方案非常有效和持久的伙伴关系。在梅克蒂安(R)的捐赠下，非OCP国家的非政府组织成为发展盘尾丝虫病控制的推动力，特别是社区行动方案。经过非洲盘尾丝虫病控制方案的进一步修改，成为成功的以社区为导向的干预措施。非政府组织与世界卫生组织(世卫组织)合作，共同协调各项活动。NGDO的创新导致了针对维生素A缺乏症和其他寄生虫病的大规模药物管理的整合，导致了目前预防性化疗的趋势。NGDO防治盘尾丝虫病小组的成功导致建立了类似的沙眼控制小组和消除淋巴丝虫病小组。这些小组现在已经聚集在一起，组成了一个被忽视的热带病控制NGDO网络。(C)2011爱思唯尔B.V.保留所有权利。
Successful public-private partnerships for health control have usually included nongovernmental development organisations (NGDOs), and these have long been in the forefront of pinpointing particular social and health issues. The immensely successful control and elimination programmes for onchocerciasis are a case in point. NGDOs were the driving force in early advocacy for onchocerciasis control in West Africa, leading eventually to the remarkably effective and long lasting partnership of the Onchocerciasis Control Programme (OCP). With the donation of Mectizan (R), NGDOs were the driving force in developing onchocerciasis control in non-OCP countries, especially programmes for community based action. These were, further modified by the African Programme for Onchocerciasis Control (APOC) to become the successful community Directed interventions. NGDOs came together to coordinate activities in partnership with the World Health Organisation (WHO). Innovations by NGDOs led to integration of mass drug administration for Vitamin A deficiency and then for other parasitic diseases, leading to the current trend of preventive chemotherapy. The success of the NGDO Group for Onchocerciasis Control has led to the creation of similar groups for trachoma control and lymphatic filariasis elimination. These groups have now come together to form an NGDO Network for Neglected Tropical Disease control. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
