(LML) Questionnaire about information needs regarding NTDs (including leprosy) and cross-cutting issues

Leprosy Mailing List – ,  2014 

Ref.:    (LML) Questionnaire about information needs regarding NTDs (including leprosy) and cross-cutting issues.

From:  Ilse Egers, NLR/Infolep, The Netherlands


 

Dear Colleagues,

 

The Netherlands Leprosy Relief (NLR) is operating Infolep, a portal with access to digital information resources on leprosy and related subjects. Infolep facilitates free access to information for anyone involved in leprosy, from researchers to students, and from to programme-managers to fieldworkers.

 

Because leprosy is one of the Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs), we are considering to expand the free services of Infolep to meet so far unmet information needs within the NTD community. The scope of the portal might be broadened with NTDs and cross-cutting issues related to Morbidity Management and Disability. These would include topics such as: community awareness, disability prevention, patient education, self-care, wound-care, physical and socio-economic rehabilitation, community participation, stigma and discrimination, NTD-related mental health problems.

 

To gain more insight in this question, we set up a questionnaire about information needs regarding NTDs and cross-cutting issues.

 

You are invited by NLR/Infolep to fill in this questionnaire before 31 July, but it would be also very helpful if you would pass on the link to other persons/organizations that might be interested to share their views with us on potential need for an NTD cross-cutting issues related information portal.

 

Please follow this link to the questionnaire: https://nl.surveymonkey.com/s/NTDcrosscuttingissues

 

 

Thank you very much in advance for your cooperation.

 

 

With kind regards,
