We invest our efforts where we determine that effective and affordable methods will treat and eliminate the effects of the disease, and, in some cases, eradicate the disease itself. Often, the best approach is a combination of strategies integrating prevention and treatment. Because few of these diseases are addressed or well funded, we’ve formed a network of public, private, and nonprofit organizations. We form partnerships with organizations whose projects support the following strategies:
- Improve diagnostics so that diseases can be detected early.
- Develop vaccines and drug treatments that are safe, effective, and affordable.
- Control the source of the disease.
- Attempt to eliminate or eradicate some diseases entirely.
- Advocate for public support to address these neglected diseases.
