iCHORDS’ mission is to maintain a forum for collaboration, coordination, and knowledge management within the social and behavioural sciences to address implementation challenges and strengthen NTD programs through evidence-based research.
The goals of the iCHORDS are as follows:
1) to collate and disseminate information generated across research and programmatic partners for use by NTD programs
2) to be responsive to challenges and research needs brought by NTD programs, which can be addressed through social and behavioural science
3) to provide a forum for collaboration and coordination amongst those engaged in implementation / programmatic research
4) to support the mentorship of young researchers
5) to collaborate with other actors and networks within NTDs and the social and behavioural sciences
