The Geneva Health Forum, the University of Geneva, Médecins Sans Frontières and Policy Cures Research, with support from Wellcome, present an event on International Snakebite Awareness Day. This event will gather snakebite envenoming (SBE) actors, as well as traditional NTD stakeholders, to define the future direction of the SBE R&D ecosystem and apply learnings from other NTD experiences. Building on Policy Cures Research’s SBE medicines landscape report and database, we will discuss a common approach to shape decision-making and ensure that SBE continues on its upward trajectors.
