Description

The nexus between health and poverty is widely recognized by several health and social scholars; as disease is considered to be one of the triggers for pervasive poverty particularly in the developing world. Neglected disease like lymphatic filariasis (LF) exist within the context of poverty, and because of its debilitating consequences on health and quality of life (QoL); it contribute significantly to the ongoing incapacity of affected individuals to escape poverty. This book presents a study on the assessment of the self-perceived health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of children and adolescents living with the ailments of LF and explores how social neglects, stigma, discrimination and structural inequalities have marginalized these children and adolescents. Researchers and academicians, who are interested in the study of the links between health and poverty, the neglected tropical diseases, and quality of life, will find this book very resourceful and insightful.
