One in six people worldwide, including half a billion children, are infected with one or more of the seven most common neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). It costs less than 50 cents per year to treat and protect one person against the seven most common NTDs. Just a few pills treats and protects for a whole year.
When entire communicates are treated at once, transmission can be halted in just a few years.
The medication has been donated. Pharmaceutical companies, international agencies, governments and development organizations have come together to deliver this medication around the world and eliminate these diseases by 2020.
NTDs must be on the global health agenda for the next decade.
These diseases breed inside a half a billion children, stunting their growth and development and contributing to malnutrition and anemia. In mothers, infection often leads to anemia and low-birth weight.
NTD infection can even make people more susceptible to other diseases like HIV and malaria.
But if entire communities are treated at once, NTD transmission will be halted and these diseases will be eliminated.
NTD treatment is cost effective and can be integrated into other development and health efforts. It strengthens health care systems, improves child and maternal health and nutrition.
Treating children for NTDs increases school attendance and decreases malnutrition. Healthy parents can labor to support their families.
Support the public private partnership to eliminate NTDs by 2030.
Never before has there been such an opportunity to help so many. Together we can END 7 diseases by 2020.

Neglected tropical diseases
Neglected tropical diseases are a medically diverse group of tropical infections which are especially common in low-income populations in developing regions of Africa, Asia, and the Americas. They are caused by a variety of pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, protozoa and helminths. Different organizations define the set of diseases differently. In sub-Saharan Africa, the impact of these diseases as a group is comparable to malaria and tuberculosis. Some of these diseases have known preventive measures or acute medical treatments which are available in the developed world but which are not universally available in poorer areas. In some cases, the treatments are relatively inexpensive. For example, the treatment for schistosomiasis is USD $0.20 per child per year. Nevertheless, control of neglected diseases is estimated to require funding of between US$2 billion to US$3 billion over the next five to seven years.
These diseases are contrasted with the big three diseases (HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria), which generally receive greater treatment and research funding. The neglected diseases can also make HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis more deadly. However, some pharmaceutical companies have committed to donating all the drug therapies required, and mass drug administration (for example mass deworming) has been successfully accomplished in several countries.

Tropical disease
Tropical diseases are diseases that are prevalent in or unique to tropical and subtropical regions. The diseases are less prevalent in temperate climates, due in part to the occurrence of a cold season, which controls the insect population by forcing hibernation. Insects such as mosquitoes and flies are by far the most common disease carrier, or vector. These insects may carry a parasite, bacterium or virus that is infectious to humans and animals. Most often disease is transmitted by an insect "bite", which causes transmission of the infectious agent through subcutaneous blood exchange. Vaccines are not available for most of the diseases listed here, and many do not have cures.
Human exploration of tropical rainforests, deforestation, rising immigration and increased international air travel and other tourism to tropical regions has led to an increased incidence of such diseases.
Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases (TDR)
In 1975 the Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases (TDR) was established to focus on neglected infectious diseases which disproportionately affect poor and marginalized populations in developing regions of Africa, Asia, Central America and South America. It was established at the World Health Organization, which is the executing agency, and is co-sponsored by the United Nations Children's Fund, United Nations Development Programme, the World Bank and the World Health Organization.

In the villages of Senegal and Mali, and across a large area of rural Africa, 100 million people are no longer at risk of contracting River Blindness. River blindness causes severe itching and discomfort and eventual blindness among infected people. Forty years ago, this disease was rampant around Africa's rivers and lakes. Today, is it all but eradicated thanks to a partnership that has brought life-saving medicines to the areas where they are needed most.

One in six people worldwide, including half a billion children, are infected with one or more of the seven most common neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). It costs less than 50 cents per year to treat and protect one person against the seven most common NTDs. Just a few pills treats and protects for a whole year.
When entire communicates are treated at once, transmission can be halted in just a few years.
The medication has been donated. Pharmaceutical companies, international agencies, governments and development organizations have come together to deliver this medication around the world and eliminate these diseases by 2020.
NTDs must be on the global health agenda for the next decade.
These diseases breed inside a half a billion children, stunting their growth and development and contributing to malnutrition and anemia. In mothers, infection often leads to anemia and low-birth weight.
NTD infection can even make people more susceptible to other diseases like HIV and malaria.
But if entire communities are treated at once, NTD transmission will be halted and these diseases will be eliminated.
NTD treatment is cost effective and can be integrated into other development and health efforts. It strengthens health care systems, improves child and maternal health and nutrition.
Treating children for NTDs increases school attendance and decreases malnutrition. Healthy parents can labor to support their families.
Support the public private partnership to eliminate NTDs by 2030.
Never before has there been such an opportunity to help so many. Together we can END 7 diseases by 2020.

Alan Fenwick is the Founder of Schistosomiasis Control Initiative, which is one of the top-ranked charities by GiveWell, a leading charity evaluator. The organization has delivered over 100M treatments for Neglected Tropical Diseases, and is one of the most highly cost-effective charities in the world. Neglected Tropical Diseases affect over 1 billion people globally, most of whom have little or no access to life-changing treatment. Research and funding directed towards tackling this enormous disease burden is still disproportionately low.
