“…The first theories on the spread of American Tegumentary Leishmaniasis narrated by Benchimol and Jogas Junior (2020) were combined with the knowledge produced in the field of microbiology and tropical medicine that made us think about the intake of fruits, geographical determination and climates and hygiene conditions and water consumption, all is correlated to an endemic region. Subsequently, it also won forced to be suspected for being a tropical disease and having its origin in an insect, vector or intermediary host.…”

The objective of this work is to present a genealogy of the historical narratives of Leishmaniasis Tegumentary from the Reference Center of Baixo Sul da Bahia. This research consists of oral history from the Leishmaniasis Reference Center (CRL) and theoretical references on the history of Leishmaniasis, from the point of view of Foucault's genealogy. In the interviews, the importance of CRL and its relationship with science was evidenced, based on studies initiated by medical researchers from the University of Brasília (UnB) in 1983. These professional science professionals will guide the community and effectively participate in the movement and organization the association for the implantation of the CRL that makes it possible to serve the population affected by Tegumentary Leishmaniasis; At the time when SUS (Unified Health System) neither existed and people acclaimed for comprehensive health care. It was therefore concluded that the scientific research in the town of Corte de Pedra will allow us to understand genealogically or why the implementation of the CRL.

“…In light of these considerations, research is being performed for developing alternative diagnostic procedures for leishmaniasis, which should be less expensive, provide rapid results and could be performed on-site with minimal preparation. Such diagnostic procedures need to be extended also to animals, mainly dogs, which may be considered potential reservoirs for leishmaniasis transmission to humans (13), although their roles as reservoirs need to be adequately demonstrated (14,15). Poverty is highly correlated with cohabitation with a high number of mongrel dogs, which is an important risk factor that further favors the spreads of the disease to the vulnerable population (16).…”

Leishmaniasis is an infectious disease that belongs to the top 10 neglected tropical diseases. It mainly affects the poor population from tropical and subtropical areas of the World, which lacks sufficient resources and means to fight against this disease. With this in mind, the European Commission has funded an international collaborative research project in which are participating various institutions from South America, North Africa and Europe. The main objective of this project is the development of a fast, less expensive, non-invasive and easy to use alternative method for leishmaniasis diagnosis in dogs, one of the main reservoirs of leishmaniasis spread to humans. In this perspective article, we present our personal insight and opinion regarding the challenges of realizing a joint international research project on leishmaniasis in Colombia, a country where leishmaniasis is endemic, as well as regarding the involvement of the Public Health institutions and the local population from this country.
