We envision a world in which all at-risk people are healthy and free of intestinal worms so they can develop to their full potential.
Our work focuses on three pillars:
-
Country Support
We support and build the capacity of national STH programs to ensure effective and efficient delivery of interventions.
-
Partnerships & Advocacy

-
Technical Leadership
We provide scientific leadership to advocate for evidence-based approaches for the control of intestinal worm infections.
We acknowledge the critical support of our core funding partners:
