On the second-ever #WorldDuchenneAwarenessDay, the Permanent Mission of Kuwait was honored to host a screening of a community-produced documentary.
We are grateful for opening remarks by H.E. Ms Amina J. Mohammed (@AminaJMohammed), Deputy Secretary General of the UN and H.E. Sheika Alya-Al Thani (@AmbAlyaAlThani), Permanent Representative of Qatar. As well as video messages by H.E. Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyrsus (@DrTedros), Director General of WHO and H.E. Mr. Philémon Yang (@UN_PGA), the President of the 79th Session of the General Assembly.
Actor and long time advocate, Steve Way, joined us to emphasize the need for more awareness to make way for research.
Following the film, we heard heartfelt reflections from the Duchenne and rare diseases community, including Pat Furlong, President of @ParentProjectMD.
The support has been nothing short of inspiring 🎈
