MApping Schistosomiasis Transmission Risk in Saint-Louis, Senegal
The project aims at mitigating the spread of schistosomiasis, a disease largely diffused in South-Saharan Africa. Through the development of a pilot project in the Saint-Louis area (Senegal), reliable risk maps based on data and models will be created. Such maps will both guide people to avoid the maximum exposure zonse and will provide decision-makers with operational tools to take action (e.g. to give medical support) in the highest priority areas.
