Public Health
The public health field addresses challenges that transcend national boundaries, creating political and economic consequences on a global scale. Infectious diseases such as malaria, tuberculosis, HIV, and AIDS collectively affect billions of people each year in both developing and developed nations. The recent emergence of H1N1 influenza and extremely drug-resistant (XDR) tuberculosis reveals the potential for isolated incidents to rapidly evolve into global pandemics demanding coordinated action.
Developing and implementing programs and infrastructures that promote good health in complex, large-scale environments is a task beyond the abilities of single institutions or fields of expertise. Energetics has adapted and applied our proven collaboration and partnership models to global public health challenges, helping our clients work effectively in this complex, time-sensitive field.
