‘The Threshold’ Live

The Threshold

We hosted a live virtual podcast taping of The Threshold on World Neglected Tropical Disease Day. Host Henry Bonsu spoke with Sabena Solomon, GSK vice president and head of global health access, and Sam Macintosh, the END Fund’s vice president of global strategic partnerships, about pharmaceutical companies’ unique role in the fight to end NTDs. Since 2000, dozens of countries have eliminated at least one NTD. This is in part thanks to pharmaceutical industry partners, who have donated over 30 billion tablets and vials toward ending NTDs. During this special event, which was made possible through funding from the Gates Foundation, we explored what is needed in this current moment to keep the momentum towards ending neglected tropical diseases. 

We also enjoyed hearing questions from you, our listeners! If you have other thoughts or ideas for future episodes, email us at podcasts@foreignpolicy.com
