Achieving Equity through Elimination of Neglected Tropical Diseases

The UK Coalition against NTDs is proud to be presenting an exciting symposium at 2pm following the Gates Round Table on 30th January 2012. The symposium entitled 'Achieving Equity through Elimination of Neglected Tropical Diseases', will provide participants the opportunity to engage with leading players in the field, including researchers, NGOs, and representatives from the pharmaceutical companies, Ministries of Health, donors, academia and WHO. There will be in depth discussions and presentations on a range of issues linked to NTDs addressing how we can efficiently work together to scale up implementation to achieve elimination for many of these diseases. The elimination of NTDs would be a huge step towards achieving equity in health given they affect some of the most marginalised people in the world.
