Background Tropical
diseases, like dengue, malaria, schistosomiasis, and etc. are endangering the
public health in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) (Myanmar, Laos, Vietnam,
Thailand, Cambodia and China). The outbreak of novel emerging zoonotic
diseases and the subsequent development of the pandemic have affected the elimination
progress of tropical diseases in GMS. President Xi Jinping at opening of 73rd
World Health Assembly called for the human kind fighting pandemics through
solidarity and cooperation by building a global community of health for all. To
respond to these challenges, it is helpful to adopt novel perspective and
tools to evaluate the potential impacts. Based on the current base of Lancang-Mekong Cooperation framework, this project aims
to introduce, disseminate and apply Chinese successful experiences in the
control of recent pandemic as well as the vector-borne tropical diseases. By
holding professional seminars and training courses, we can share and apply
the technologies with the GMS countries in risk. Objective In this training course, we will share
the concept of “One Health” and apply the Spatial Epidemiology Analytics with
the GMS countries in risk. By doing so, we can build up a cooperation and
information sharing network in name of tropical diseases with the framework
of Lancang-Mekong Publich
Health Cooperation. This project will provide a solid foundation and
technological support for vector-borne tropical diseases control in both
China and Southeast Asia countries. Organizer School of Global Health, Contact Website： http://www.ipd.org.cn/itc/ghpgms2020
