Conclusion
NDD
Stakeholders from three Indian states indicated that there is moderate to high readiness to transition from a policy of STH control strategy by NDD to STH transmission interruption strategy by cMDA, provided there are new investments in financial, material, and human resources for state-level programs. The transition of LF programs into a post MDA surveillance phase offers an opportunity to leverage existing LF infrastructure in a strategic de-implementation approach. Currently, leadership structures are separate for these two programs, however, the three participating states reported extensive experience with integration. Program maps further provide opportunities to visualize specific resources and activities that can be leveraged across programs. Thoughtful integration may offer the opportunity to maximize resources and launch successful STH transmission interruption programs at scale.
