Public Health
Our team is working around the clock to deliver Friendly™ mosquito solutions to combat species that transmit deadly diseases around the world.
Oxitec has demonstrated unparalleled success against the invasive mosquito, Aedes aegypti;, which spreads dengue fever, Zika, chikungunya and other deadly viral diseases. We are now joining the fight against malaria, targeting two important malaria-spreading mosquitoes. Our Public Health work spans four continents and multiple programs, with more to come.
Food Sustainability
Oxitec’s Friendly™ platform is being applied to combat the growing threat posed by agricultural pests that are damaging crops globally, and threatening food security and livelihoods.
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
The 17 United Nations SDGs set out an ambitious, and positive vision for the future, but they will only be achieved if we work together.
The world’s population reaching 8 billion people in 2022 has brought the approaching challenges and perils facing our planet and humanity into sharp focus.
