This book focuses on neglected skin diseases and conditions in
resource-poor countries through the lens of livelihoods. These
diseases, when neglected, not only affect the skin, but also joint
movement and physical appearance, severely influencing the lives
and livelihoods of individuals and families in vulnerable
communities. The book explores why neglected skin diseases thrive
in resource-poor countries, and considers how this cycle might be
broken by looking at the impact on livelihoods and access to
healthcare in affected communities. The research is shaped by three
guiding questions: Firstly, why have some measures been successful
in one part of a population and not the other? Secondly, what is
unique about vulnerable populations in various parts of the world?
And thirdly, can the cycle of debilitating skin diseases and
conditions in resource-poor countries be broken? In addressing
these concerns, the book excavates past and present efforts in
public health measures to combat these diseases, considers the
impact of culture and livelihoods, and reviews some of the
milestones in disease elimination and eradication. This book will
be an indispensable source for health service planners,
administrators and practitioners working with vulnerable
populations, as well as graduate students and researchers in public
health.
