Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are widespread globally and negatively affect sexual and reproductive health. Gaps in evidence and in available tools have hindered STI prevention, control, and management, particularly in resource-limited settings. WHO has undertaken a global research prioritization exercise to identify the most important STI research areas to address the public health need. This document summarizes the resulting STI research priorities and provides a call to action for focus, investment and innovation to reduce the global toll of STIs. Related link |
