ENTOMOLOGY AND PUBLIC HEALTH IN A CHANGING WORLD-CHALLENGES AND INNOVATIONS

ABSTRACT
Insects are among the most evolutionarily successful organisms on Earth, providing essential ecological services such as pollination, decomposition, and nutrient cycling that sustain biodiversity, agriculture, and human society. Although only a small proportion of insect species become pests or disease vectors, these highly adaptable species increasingly influence public health, food safety, and urban sustainability. Urbanisation, climate change, globalisation, and increased human mobility are reshaping insect-human interactions, creating new challenges for vector-bome diseases, food contamination, and structural pest management, particularly in Southeast Asia. The growing emergence of insecticide resistance demonstrates that technological interventions alone cannot overcome the evolutionary capacity of insects to adapt under continuous selection pressure. Drawing on research in insecticide resistance, urban pest management, vector control and digital surveillance, this keynote demonstrates how evolutionary thinking can guide practical innovation. Case studies include optimisation of the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) for Aedes aegypti using biologically informed irradiation protocols and the development of IoT-enabled smart ovitraps with automated image analysis for real-time surveilance and evidence-based decision-making. These examples show that technological advances achieve their greatest impact when grounded in ecological and evolutionary principles. Building upon the concepts of Integrated Pest Management (PM) and Integrated Vector Management (IVM), this keynote advocates a systems-based approach integrating evolutionary biology ecology public health, food safety, digital technologies, governance, and evidence- based policy. Ultimately, successful innovation in public health entomology depends not only on new technologies but also on a deeper biological understanding of the insects being managed.
