Ref.: (LML) New publications on cross-cutting issues in NTDs. April, 2022
From: Roos Geutjes, Amsterdam, the Netherlands
Dear colleagues,
Many of you probably cannot wait to meet again in-person. Although traveling sometimes might be challenging due to limited time, resources and/or travel restrictions. With the end of the pandemic in sight, we are starting to comprehend how to make the best out of hybrid meetings. Hybrid meetings provide us with the opportunity to attend meetings, without requiring to travel, limiting our carbon footprint. By now, the first hybrid conferences have been announced and we can meet and learn from each other in a mixture of on- and off-line settings. Isn't that exciting?!
Save the date for the NTD NGO Network 2022 Conference, which will be in a hybrid format, taking place in-person in Kathmandu, Nepal from 13th - 15th September. Scroll down to find more upcoming events!
Enjoy reading the selection of the latest NTD publications that are listed below. We offer free full text delivery services. Feel free to contact us to receive the full-text versions if these cannot be found through the InfoNTD portal. We will also gladly support you with literature searches.
Warm regards,
Roos Geutjes
