Its strategic objectives are: The development of people and institutions: mentoring world-class clinicians and scientists Disseminating high-quality research evidence, locally and globally Strengthening governance, management and financial planning, thus building operational excellence in tackling tropical diseases Public engagement (PE) & outreach with the communities who host us, in turn inspiring and involving current and future generations in medical research This application pertains to the last strategic objective of the programme. The "must-do" engagement activities are part of the Thailand Major Overseas Programme core grant 2015 -2020. In April 2016, the programme received a PPE award (£673,180) to build a core PE team and to pilot some "smart-to-do" and "wise-to-do" activities in years 1 and 2 of the core grant and with a view of shaping the PE activities for years 3 to 5. The core PE team is led by Ass. Prof. Phaik Yeong Cheah, who is co-PI on this application. This application is for PE activities in years 3 to 5 based on learnings from our pilot projects and to grow further the PE capacity within the programme.
