iCHORDS Community of Practice is a platform for communication, collaboration and knowledge exchange within social and behavioural science research disciplines to address implementation gaps and current issues facing Neglected Tropical Disease programs. Given this, It is extremely important for iCHORDS to work together with other partners to understand challenges that are faced within communities so we as researchers can be responsive to needs. In this episode, we will be speaking to the Chair of Kikundi Leadership Council, a Community of Practice for NTD Program Managers in Africa – to learn more about some of the dynamic needs program managers are facing in the field.
