description BACKGROUND: Mother-to-child transmission of Chagas disease (CD) has become a relevant problem in both endemic and non-endemic areas. METHODS: Description of the CUIDA Chagas Project - Communities United for Innovation, Development and Attention for Chagas disease’. RESULTS: Through innovative and strategic research, this project will provide improved diagnostic and treatment options as well as replicable implementation models that are adaptable to different contexts. CONCLUSIONS: By integrating test, treat and care actions for CD into primary health care practices, the burden of CD on people and health systems may be significantly reduced.
