BL 5 strategic objectivesBL 5 strategic objectives
Overall objective: To develop and evaluate improved and innovative vector control methods for the prevention of neglected diseases.
Specific objectives: • To promote the development and testing of new methods for
improving Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT) vector control and support the generation and exploitation of Glossina genome sequence data
• To advance the development and evaluation of new and improved integrated methods for malaria and dengue vector control
• To progress the development and evaluation of alternative methods for the prevention of re-infestation and the control of Chagas disease vectors
