Human health improvement in Sub-Saharan Africa through integrated management of arthropod transmitted diseases and natural resources

A concept of an ecosystem approach to human health improvement in Sub-Saharan Africa is presented here. Three factors mainly affect the physical condition of the human body: the abiotic environment, vector-transmitted diseases, and natural resources. Our concept relies on ecological principles embed...
