DSW+European Voice Special Report: "A healthier world - tackling neglected diseases"

Empowering people to take control of their lives and improve their health is at the core of DSW’s work – focusing in particular on the devastating impact on the lives of young men and women caused by HIV and AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis, as well as other poverty-related neglected diseases.

A crucial part of this work is making sure that global health issues remain high on the political agenda. Much of what we do from Brussels and Berlin is making sure that policy makers and politicians are fully informed of the latest developments in the area and how their support can further the cause.
