Public Engagement for the Thailand Major Overseas Programme 2015 - 2020 (360G-Wellcome-106698_Z_14_B)
The mission of the Wellcome Trust Thailand Major Overseas Programme is to carry out targeted clinical and public health investigations, using the best science, to provide appropriate and affordable interventions which produce measurable improvements in the health of resource-poor populations in the tropics. Over the past 35 years the Programme has built substantial clinical and laboratory research capabilities, deployed across a well-integrated network of strategically placed permanent study sites and research units in seven countries across Asia and Africa. We will use this expertise and research capacity to tackle the epidemiology, diagnosis, pathophysiology, treatment, prevention, and, in the case of malaria, elimination of those understudied infectious and nutritional diseases that cause significant morbidity and mortality in the populous rural tropics. In doing so we will strengthen local research capacity, a major objective of the programme, and build lasting south-south research collaborations with our partners across the developing world. We will inform health policy, change clinical practice, and make a global impact on mortality from tropical infectious disease.
