Public Health System Interventions for Neglected Tropical Diseases in Sub-Saharan Africa: Mapping Progress and Persistent Gaps – A Scoping Review

The primary objective of this scoping review is to map the literature on the role of public health systems in the control and elimination of neglected tropical diseases in Sub-Saharan Africa. Specific objectives include: • To identify the types of public health system interventions that have supported NTD control and elimination in the region. • To assess reported progress made through integration, policy, and service delivery innovations. • To explore persistent system-level barriers affecting the implementation and sustainability of NTD programs. • To identify gaps in the literature and areas for future research.
