Alliance for the Global Elimination of Trachoma

The Alliance for the Global Elimination of Trachoma is a worldwide partnership dedicated to ending trachoma, a contagious eye disease that can cause blindness if untreated. It brings together organizations, governments, and experts to coordinate efforts like improving sanitation, hygiene education, and providing medicine to prevent and treat the infection. The goal is to eliminate trachoma as a public health problem, especially in vulnerable communities, by implementing proven strategies and ensuring sustainable access to care. This collaboration helps reduce preventable blindness and supports healthier, more productive societies globally.
