International Day of People with Disabilities #IDPD2024 includes people affected by Neglected Tropical Diseases - being trained and driving access to #inclusiveWASH in their communities @CBMuk @CBM_Global @Hands_Nigeria @KienguC #BeatNTDs
On #DisabilityDay, let’s highlight how inclusive WASH and #NTD efforts empower persons with disabilities, breaking barriers of stigma and exclusion. Inclusive #WASH isn't just access—it's dignity and equity. Download the case study here: tinyurl.com/878xdee2 #IDPD

"Lack of awareness is the reason for stigma... If you have access to the drugs on time, you will be cured and there will be no sign." - Peter Iorkighir, IDEA #Nigeria President shared his experience at #mhCAP-NTD Antistigma Advocacy Workshop @CBM_Global @Anesvad

The Arclight is changing the way we provide eyecare to millions of people! With the University of St Andrews @arclightprojec1, we have been integrating the Arclight tool into primary health center training, with projects in Zimbabwe, Malawi, Kenya, Madagascar & Burkina Faso.
An alternative to a traditional direct ophthalmoscope, which can cost anywhere in the range of £100 to over £1000, the Arclight is revolutionizing the way we deliver eye care across the world! Photos: @arclightprojec1 & Dr Andrew Blaikie #Ophthalmology #SDGs #HealthForAll

Celebrating the recent Suicide Prevention Walk & ongoing incredible work of our partners @MentallyAwareNG, raising awareness, supporting mental health & petitioning to decriminalise suicide in Nigeria #BreakTheSilence
Walking for a Cause: The recent Suicide Prevention Walk which was held yesterday in the community of Abule Oja, Yaba Lagos. #BreakTheSilence This video is a tribute to all who walked with us, showing that our community stands firmly together in the fight against suicide. It rained heavily yesterday but there was a downpour of hope and peace in the Abule Oja community. We are thankful to those who lent their voices to raise awareness around suicide with us yesterday. Join us in signing the petition to decriminalize suicide in Nigeria @CBMuk @CBM_Global #SuicideNotCrimeNG #suicidepreventionawareness #decriminalizesuicideinnigeria #MANICommunityWalk

Great news! Well done @mha_ghana and partners. Looking forward to learning from their experience.
Attempted suicide has been decriminalized in Ghana thanks to the tireless efforts of @mha_ghana, civil society organizations inc. @MindFreedomGh. A huge step forward to support (not punish) people experiencing emotional distress #QualityRights

The war in Ukraine is having a devastating impact on the lives of 5.7M school-aged children, including on their education. Getting them back to learning is a critical step for restoring normalcy to their lives and protecting their future. unicef.org/emergencies/ukrai… via @UNICEF
