Sightsavers and the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene (RSTMH) are holding an online event on 23 January 2024 to share and discuss learnings around how to eliminate the infectious eye disease trachoma.
This webinar is designed to give an overview of the incorporation of model-based geostatistics (MBG) into the Tropical Data service. Speakers will give presentations on the background, technical implementation and rationale for using this analysis approach, and a number of case studies will be presented by health ministry partners to provide examples of how MBG has been employed so far. The webinar will end with a Q&A session with panellists from WHO, Tropical Data, Sightsavers, representatives from Tanzania, Malawi and Nigeria health ministries, and the University of Lancaster.
Many gaps remain, with millions of people still suffering from diseases that could be cured.
