Addressing neglect in epidemiology requires a multifaceted approach:
Policy Advocacy: Advocating for policies that prioritize neglected health issues can help allocate resources and attention where needed. Community Engagement: Involving communities in the decision-making process ensures that their health needs are recognized and addressed. Research Funding: Increasing funding for research on neglected diseases and populations can generate data and interventions to address these gaps. Education and Awareness: Raising awareness about neglected health issues can reduce stigma and encourage support for affected populations. International Collaboration: Collaborating with global health organizations can help prioritize and address neglected issues on an international scale.
