KalaCORE

The KalaCORE consortium has been formed from four organisations, namely Drugs for Neglected Diseases Initiative (DNDi), the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM), Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), and Mott MacDonald. Each of these organisations brings distinct and complementary skills to delivery of the programme. KalaCORE aims to make significant contributions to reducing the health and economic impact of VL, by supporting progress towards elimination in South Asia and building stronger capacity for an effective VL response in East Africa.

KalaCORE is a partnership to support the control and elimination of visceral leishmaniasis in six countries, three in Asia (India, Nepal and Bangladesh) and three in Africa (Ethiopia, Sudan and South Sudan).
