Snakebite Initiative

The Snakebite Initiative is a program aimed at reducing deaths and health issues caused by snakebites, especially in rural areas. It focuses on improving access to effective treatment, educating communities about prevention and first aid, training healthcare providers, and ensuring the availability of antivenom. By strengthening healthcare systems and awareness, the initiative seeks to save lives, reduce disability, and address a neglected public health issue that disproportionately affects vulnerable populations.
