Several partners and initiatives contribute to the control and elimination of neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) at the global level. However, deficiencies in the capacity of NTD programs to manage the donation, storage, and distribution of neglected tropical disease drugs (NTDDs) for mass drug administration (MDA) still remain. Working in tandem with partners, stakeholders, and NTD programs in priority countries, SIAPS provided the required coordination and technical expertise to advance the NTD control agenda and address issues and concerns of global initiatives as they relate to NTDDs.
