  About the conference

Where entomology, environment & public health meet

Vector-borne diseases remain one of the most pressing public health challenges in tropical regions. This conference brings together entomologists, molecular biologists, environmental scientists, and policy makers to share research on vector biology, disease surveillance, and sustainable environmental management — building practical pathways from laboratory research to community-level risk reduction.
