Dengue fever, a mosquito-borne viral infection, is a scourge of tropical climates. An extraordinary project in Indonesia, however, brought together a vast diversity of partners to combat the spread of the disease through innovative methods.

One of the global targets of WHO’s End TB Strategy is that no TB patients and their households face catastrophic costs as a result of TB disease. This book provides comprehensive documentation about 20 national surveys of costs faced by TB patients and their households that were completed between 2015 and 2021, according to WHO-recommended methods. Results include estimates of the proportion of TB patients and their households facing catastrophic costs, as well as a wealth of other data. It is hoped that the book will serve as a key reference for ministries of health and other government agencies, and their national and international partners, as they work towards reducing costs faced by TB patients and their households. The book was a collaborative effort of the 20 countries in which surveys were done and their technical partners, with contributions from more than 300 people.
We proudly present the proceedings of 6th International Conference on Social and Political Enquiries 2021 (ICISPE 2021) with the main theme The Politics of Pandemics: Governing Social and Communal Resilience in Times of Crises. It focuses on the relation of policy and global network, regional integration, pandemics regulation, human security, and local government. These issues are important today, not only globally, but also Indonesia nationally to the local level. There are several important issues relating to this, both institutionally and the relationships between individuals and groups in supporting the agenda in managing the pandemics. More than 130 manuscripts were presented at this conference; around 60 of which are selected to be published in proceedings. We hope by this conference, discussions on the importance of sustainable development will increasingly become an important concern together and bring better response from the government and social relations for development.
