Stronger health systems. Lasting impact. 🌍

🛑 Don’t scroll. Read this.

Leprosy is curable and less contagious than a cold–yet stigma still costs people jobs, education, and rights.
100+ discriminatory laws remain.
This isn’t about disease. It’s about stigma.

🟧 One share = one action to change the story.

On #WorldNTDDay, we shine a light on female genital schistosomiasis (FGS).

FGS is caused by a parasitic infection. It's easily treatable and preventable but often unrecognised & misdiagnosed, with many women receiving the wrong treatment.

It’s not too late to stand with a mother in 2025.

Shilpi lost her leg, and then her livelihood–but not her strength. She endures unimaginable hardship for the sake of her children.

Help a mother move forward:

[International League of Dermatological Societies @ILDSDerm]

A historic milestone was achieved at the #WHA78, where a resolution was adopted recognising #skindiseases as a global public health priority. Now, @WHO is conducting an important survey to gather insights that will inform a global action plan.

[Global Alliance For NTDs Elimination (GANE) @GANEKenya]

Can #NTDs really affect countries outside the tropics? The evidence says yes.

This week’s #NTDsMythBuster, we unpack a misconception: #NTDs only exist in tropical regions.

While most #NTDs are concentrated in tropical regions, their geographical boundaries are expanding.

[Effect Hope @effecthope]

We’re leaving #NNN2025 energized by new ideas and possibilities ahead! 💡
This year’s conference fostered bold thinking, collaboration, and meaningful inclusion of people affected by NTDs.

Inspired to keep these conversations going! 🌍
