摘要：My foreword to the first INDEPTH supplement published in GHA, which comprised a series of papers by the INDEPTH NCD Surveillance in Asia Working Group, stated that the work demonstrated ‘the increasing ability of the INDEPTH Network to harness the collective potential in Health and Demographic Surveillance Systems in low- and middle-income countries to provide a better, empirical understanding of health issues of populations under continuous evaluation.’ In that foreword I also noted, ‘with that collaborative research, we have seen some of the objectives of INDEPTH being achieved: we have strengthened the capability of several of our young scientists to conduct and analyse longitudinal health and demographic studies; and some of them have become first authors of scientific papers for the first time’.
