Uniting to Combat NTDs: Leadership at a community level

Uniting to Combat NTDs

Showcase submission:

Three stories filmed in Uganda and Ethiopia about the lives of three remarkable individuals who are bringing about big change in their communities in the battle against Neglected Tropical Diseases. Intestinal worms, lymphatic filariasis and trachoma are just three of the many diseases that hold communities back. Through partnerships and empowerment at a local village level, the mass distribution of drugs and sensitisation of the population is working.
