Beyond Borders: Financing Neglected Tropical Diseases for Global Health Equity

Despite significant advances in global health, neglected tropical diseases remain a critical challenge requiring innovative approaches to research, development, and treatment accessibility. The complex interplay between research funding, drug development, and equitable access demands new frameworks for international cooperation. This panel brings together researchers from India and Germany to examine how financing mechanisms, research prioritization, and diplomatic frameworks can be transformed to address neglected tropical diseases more effectively. The discussion explores evidence-based approaches to strengthen global commitments across the entire spectrum – from basic research to drug development and equitable access to treatments.

The panel discussion is a part of the Global Health Summit Regional Meeting 2025, New Delhi
