Global cooperation in health research

International cooperation generates synergies for medical progress. Research infrastructures can be established and used jointly. At the same time, health research must also contribute to global health care. The Federal Government is strengthening the internationalization of health research through the establishment of joint research infrastructures and is promoting the international coordination of research programmes. A special focus is being placed on the study of neglected and poverty-related diseases in cooperation with developing countries.

    Fighting neglected and poverty-related diseases

    In the poverty stricken regions of the world, many people suffer from infectious diseases. Such diseases often have particularly serious consequences and remain the most common cause of death in these regions. The best-known examples are HIV/AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis. These three diseases often attract attention even in rich countries. On 8 December 2011, Parliamentary State Secretary Braun announced the funding of three product development partnerships (PDPs). This funding will support selected international non-profit organizations in their cooperation with pharmaceutical companies and research institutes to develop medications, vaccines, and diagnostics for the fight against neglected diseases.
