Issue Date: | Dec-2020 | Source: | Journal of infectious diseases, Dec. 2020, v. 222, no. 8, p. S726-S731 | Abstract: | BACKGROUND: Intersectoral collaboration in the context of the prevention and control of vector-borne diseases has been broadly described in both the literature and the current global strategy by the World Health Organization. Our aim was to develop a framework that will distill the currently known multiple models of collaboration. METHODS: Qualitative content analysis and logic modeling of data abstracted from 69 studies included in a scoping review done by the authors were used to develop 9 recommendation statements that summarized the composition and attributes of multisectoral approaches, which were then subjected to a modified Delphi process with 6 experts in the fields of health policy and infectious diseases. RESULTS: Consensus for all statements was achieved during the first round. The recommendation statements were on (1-3) sectoral engagement to supplement government efforts and augment public financing; (4) development of interventions for most systems levels; (5-6) investment in human resource, including training; (7-8) intersectoral action to implement strategies and ensure sustainability of initiatives; and (9) research to support prevention and control efforts. CONCLUSIONS: The core of intersectoral action to prevent vector-borne diseases is collaboration among multiple stakeholders to develop, implement, and evaluate initiatives at multiple levels of intervention. |
