Introduction
The objective of this webinar series is to create an online network of researchers and others working in the field of vector-borne diseases (VBDs). This webinar series aims to provide a platform that allows for sharing of relevant research, lessons learnt, ideas and innovation. This network of individuals will come together to discuss various relevant research themes around One Health, climate change and vector-borne diseases. This series will provide the space to share challenges and learn from each other’s experiences, while working towards the common goal of more effective and efficient VBD prevention and management.
Through this initiative we hope to foster greater collaboration, to build upon each other’s initiatives and activities and create a greater impact and outreach while promoting quality research. With the belief that the inclusive and holistic One Health approach is the way forward for the future, we wish to develop a shared understanding of One Health and an understanding and awareness on how best to prevent and manage VBDs in various settings, especially in the Global South.
