Climate monitoring and decision support framework for sand fly-borne diseases detection and mitigation with cost-benefit and climate-policy measures

The main objective of the project is to support the establishment of an early warning and response system for sandfly-triggered health infections and potential diseases, including all endemic sand fly vectors and the main pathogens (Leishmania parasites and phleboviruses), which is prospective, i.e. makes predictions and links them to policy recommendations, coordinates existing campaign capacities across Europe and in neighbouring countries, and carries out risk assessments.
