Control of neglected tropical diseases in the Pacific: integration of programs to increase their impact

我们的目标是改善控制被忽视的热带病的方案，这些热带病是澳大利亚邻国巴布亚新几内亚、所罗门群岛和瓦努阿图常见的贫困疾病。我们的合作伙伴正在支持这些国家的卫生部实施综合方案，以更好地控制这些疾病。我们的多学科研究将使用改进的诊断学、空间制图、卫生系统、社会科学和卫生经济学来评估这种综合的疾病控制方法。

Our goal is to improve programs to control neglected tropical diseases, diseases of poverty common in Australia's neighbours: Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands and Vanuatu. Our partners are supporting the Ministries of Health in these countries to implement integrated programs to better control these diseases. Our multidisciplinary research will use improved diagnostics, spatial mapping, health systems, social science and health economics to evaluate this integrated approach to disease control.
