Objective
Our overall objective is to integrate our consortium’s individual skills, capacity and innovations into advanced, low-cost and deployable digital dashboards and diagnostics to understand how changes in climate are affecting the dynamics of soil-transmitted helminth (STH) and schistosomiasis in underserved rural community settings in sub-Saharan Africa. Data will be linked into personal records as well as central government and regional health surveillance systems, through secure, established networks to inform better diagnosis and improved care pathways, generating data-informed policies to adapt society to climate change pressures and marshal resources effectively.
We will do it through the following specific objectives:
1- Individuals’ Connected Diagnostics in Community Settings.
2- Community Diagnostics.
3- Inter-operability of Climate and Health within MoH and MoE Databases.
4- Open Innovation, Ethics and Regulatory Activities.
5- Health Economics, Platform Deployment and Influencing Heath Planning.
The impact of our project will be:
- Development, improvement and/or scaling-up of digital innovative solutions supporting clinical research through smart, highly innovative digital health technologies or concepts to accelerate the development of preventive, therapeutic or diagnostic interventions addressing poverty-related diseases in sub-Saharan Africa.
- Development, improvement and/or scale-up of new digital technologies in public health interventions that can serve as drivers for the strengthening of health systems in sub-Saharan Africa.
- Contribution to the implementation of national and/or overarching regional digital health strategies.
- Reduced socio-economic burden of infectious diseases and an increased health security in sub-Saharan Africa and globally.
