The Burning Issue: Parasites - enemy of the poor
For millions of the world's poor, parasitic infections can be debilitating or even lethal. There are high hopes for new mass medication programmes but treatment has not always proceeded as planned, and in some cases there has been fierce local resistance.
In this Burning Issue public lecture, Tim Allen - professor of development anthropology -- will examine the facts, the failures and the future of our fight against one of humankind's most endemic invisible enemies.
The lecture is the first of LSE's 'Burning Issues' lectures -- a short series of interactive talks designed with a public audience in mind. Two lectures will follow with Professor Emily Jackson tackling the issue of assisting dying in the 'Right to Die' and Professor Conor Gearty asking what human rights are in 'The DNA of Human Rights'.
The Burning Issue Lectures are supported by the LSE Annual Fund and Cato Stonex (BSc International Relations 1986).
