The NTD Innovation Prize is paused for 2024
updates expected in 2025
Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) affect more than one billion of the world’s most vulnerable people, many in remote and underserved locations. In these contexts, affected people and health systems confront challenges in finding, diagnosing, treating and managing the complications of NTDs.
American Leprosy Missions develops and invests in approaches, systems, technologies and tools that create sustainable, positive impact for people affected, accelerating the exploration and application of novel solutions to cure, care and end high-morbidity NTDs. This includes the annual NTD Innovation Prize, launched in September 2019.
Since the Prize launched in 2019, over $180,000 has been awarded.
“This prize is an opportunity for researchers with original ideas to get more than a grant to implement their projects, an international prize to encourage their efforts.
