5. Health authorities Local communities Expert groups International Stakeholders Education authorities One Alliance Other companies CREATE A COMMON GOAL –> BREAK DENGUE Different questions, one hub CONNECT

6. SCIENTIFIC DELIVERABLES Increased understanding of disease and control methods One Narrative 4 Main Types of Deliverables - all fed by ONE Narrative SUPPORT TO POLICY ACTIVITIES Tools and data to feed policy activities Improved implementation of activities thanks to aggregated, active audience COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT Sustained switch to active mode against Dengue STAKEHOLDERS ENGAGEMENT A motivation for stakeholders to share their knowledge at a global scale

7. Collect & share real time data to track trends & better anticipate the virus.

8. DENGUE ON SOCIAL MEDIA

9. From dialogue to hard deliverables Facilitate the launch of global and local pilot projects around the globe: testing, learning, sharing and going global. eg. Development of a Standardized Global Dengue Epidemiology Database

10. TARGETED OUTCOMES 1.A globally coordinated dialog 2.Global community 3.Crowd knowledge 4.New measure 5.New solutions 6.Data, observations and models to support policy activities 7.A model for other neglected diseases ACT MEASURE CONNECT SHARE

11. IN THE COMING MONTHS MILESTONE 1: Formalize an organizational framework MILESTONE 2: Identify the right partners and successfully get them on board MILESTONE 3: Complete setup process, operational & other structures MILESTONE 4: Provide resources to the board of directors, enabling work to get done

12. PROPOSED STRUCTURE - STRUCTURE Board of Directors Advisory Scientific Council Operational Team Active Members Supporting Members Executive Body Implementation Body Experts (no voting rights) General Assembly (voting rights for all members) 1 rotating active member Members appointed by BoD Attend the General Assembly (no voting right except for the rotating member) Advisor to BoD Advisor to BoD

13. FUNDING STRUCTURE 1.Membership fees – kept to the minimum 2.Grants – allowing members funding based on interest 3.Crowd funding – for smaller and local initiatives 4.Donations & contributions – from the community at large

14. WHAT WE HAVE ALREADY (OR SOON) 1.Vaccines to vaccination (v2V) group of experts 2.Dengue epidemiological data gathering and standardization 3.Collaborative knowledge sharing tool (see appendix 1) 4.www.BreakDengue.org - Alliance in constructionwww.BreakDengue.org

15. ABOUT THE SYNERGIST ASBL Enabling positive change Pools together resources, comms assets and expertise to deal with pertinent healthcare issues on a global level Offer an ecosystem that will: host, connect, stimulate and empower causes and projects  Aim to serve as catalysts for change  Be innovative and find new solutions  Share resources  Learn from each initiative www.TheSynergist.org

16. Appendix 1 Knowledge platform

17. The Knowledge Sharing Platform a scientific wiki integrated to a scientific community

18. THE NEED Scientific research reports are usually compiled and posted in a single and static place Visibility is low, updates are difficult. Those files become obsolete pretty fast, get lost and unseen

19. THE SOLUTION Establish a knowledge ecosystem which combines the “Wikipedia-approach” of knowledge sharing, with the high interactivity of social media platforms Result is: An online platform filled with high-quality scientific information on all formats (text, pictures, videos, sound), populated and visited by health experts and knowledge-seekers alike An interactive solution, bringing science knowledge to life, generating returning members and dynamic up to date content An expandable model A shared development cost

20. RICH WIKI SOCIAL NETWORK Twitter feed Connect and follow Title: Expertise: Contributions References Comments Latest activity 2 PIECES IN ONE
