Abstract

The report highlights achievements in advancing a growing ecohealth field of knowledge, education and practice, while generating innovative and action-oriented knowledge that benefits poor populations in middle and low income countries. This is the final prospectus report for the Ecosystems and Human Health Program (begun in 1997). Prepared for the External Program Review for 2010-2015, it presents the program’s goal, implementation logic and strategy, main program achievements and outcomes, and lessons learned. The period covers efforts in ‘field building’: agriculture and health linkages, climate change and health, and prevention and control of emerging and re-emerging diseases (EIDs).
