Ref.:  (LML) Infolep monthly overview of new publications on leprosy - Jul '22

 

From:  Anniek Akerboom, Amsterdam, the Netherlands

 



Dear colleagues, 

In the past month, the Kigali Summit took place. World leaders gathered in Rwanda and made firm commitments towards ending NTDs by the end of the decade. Click here to read the official Summit Outcome Statement.

The WHO launched the strategic framework for the integrated control and management of skin NTDs. The framework emphasizes an integrated approach to enable countries to tackle the morbidity, disability and psychosocial impact of skin NTDs by identifying areas, key partners and resources. Click here to watch the official launch of the framework.

The Leprosy Research Initiative (LRI) published recordings from their Annual Spring Meeting 2022 that took place 7 and 8 April. Go to the LRI website >> to watch the sessions you were unable to attend or to relive some of your LRI Spring Meeting moments.

Enjoy reading the latest publications on leprosy and have a look at the upcoming events below. Also, I would be happy to assist you with literature searches on Infolep.

Warm regards,

Anniek Akerboom
