Step One - Choose a neglected tropical disease from the Carter Center web site and gather additional background information from WHO, NIH, and the CDC:
Step Two - Narrow your topic
This paper is very short so you must narrow your topic from one which is too general such as "Schistosomiasis" or "Malaria." Instead, refine your topic by choosing a region or a gender or an age that you will focus on. Remember also that your paper must focus on current progress in PREVENTION. Examples of good topics are "Prevention of Malaria in African Women and Children" or "Prevention of Schistosomiasis in Nigeria."

Featuring thousands of full-text journals, this collection of scholarly trade and popular articles offers information on a broad range of important areas including: anthropology, biology, chemistry, ethnic & multicultural studies, law, mathematics, music, psychology, women's studies, and many other fields.
