abstract: 'The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) call for an integrated
|
|
|
|
response, the kind that has defined Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs)
|
|
|
|
efforts in the past decade.
|
|
|
|
NTD interventions have the greatest relevance for SDG3, the health goal,
|
|
|
|
where the focus on equity, and its commitment to reaching people in need
|
|
|
|
of health services, wherever they may live and whatever their
|
|
|
|
circumstances, is fundamentally aligned with the target of Universal
|
|
|
|
Health Coverage. NTD interventions, however, also affect and are
|
|
|
|
affected by many of the other development areas covered under the 2030
|
|
|
|
Agenda. Strategies such as mass drug administration or the programmatic
|
|
|
|
integration of NTD and WASH activities (SDG6) are driven by effective
|
|
|
|
global partnerships (SDG17). Intervention against the NTDs can also have
|
|
|
|
an impact on poverty (SDG1) and hunger (SDG2), can improve education
|
|
|
|
(SDG4), work and economic growth (SDG8), thereby reducing inequalities
|
|
|
|
(SDG10). The community-led distribution of donated medicines to more
|
|
|
|
than 1 billion people reinforces women''s empowerment (SDG5), logistics
|
|
|
|
infrastructure (SDG9) and non-discrimination against disability (SDG16).
|
|
|
|
Interventions to curb mosquito-borne NTDs contribute to the goals of
|
|
|
|
urban sustainability (SDG11) and resilience to climate change (SDG13),
|
|
|
|
while the safe use of insecticides supports the goal of sustainable
|
|
|
|
ecosystems (SDG15). Although indirectly, interventions to control
|
|
|
|
waterand animal-related NTDs can facilitate the goals of small-scale
|
|
|
|
fishing (SDG14) and sustainable hydroelectricity and biofuels (SDG7).
|
|
|
|
NTDs proliferate in less developed areas in countries across the income
|
|
|
|
spectrum, areas where large numbers of people have little or no access
|
|
|
|
to adequate health care, clean water, sanitation, housing, education,
|
|
|
|
transport and information. This scoping review assesses how in this
|
|
|
|
context, ending the epidemic of the NTDs can impact and improve our
|
|
|
|
prospects of attaining the SDGs.'
