Uniting to Combat NTDs

Uniting to Combat NTDs is a global effort to fight neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), which are infections affecting over a billion people, mostly in poor communities. These diseases cause severe health problems, limit development, and keep communities trapped in poverty. The initiative brings together governments, organizations, and health experts to share resources, strategies, and knowledge. By working together, they aim to prevent, treat, and eventually eliminate NTDs through improved healthcare, access to medicines, education, and infrastructure. It's a coordinated approach to reduce suffering and enhance global health equity.
