SOCIAL WALL
Challenge accepted @TheENDFund!
This #WorldHygieneDay, we're delighted to take part in the #Safehandschallenge, why? B/c handwashing is crucial to stop the spread of #COVID19 & neglected tropical diseases (#NTDs).
We nominate @sanwatforall, @sci_ntds & @MagdaNRobalo!
#NotoNTDs
Thanks to #COVID19, social distancing is becoming a vital trend these days and unfortunately Adzo Kouwonou, whom suffers from #elephantiasis, knows a lot about this. Read why here: https://bit.ly/3aggjSr

Neglected Tropical Diseases (#NTDs) primarily affect the world’s most impoverished communities. But within this, one group is even more likely to suffer disproportionately: #women and girls.
Together, let's say #NotoNTDs!

Access to clean #water is essential to reduce the transmission of Neglected Tropical Diseases (#NTDs) and #Covid_19. Therefore, multi-sectoral partnerships between WASH & health are crucial to achieve #healthforall.

#WorldWaterDay
Neglected Tropical Diseases (#NTDs) affect the most marginalized & hard-to-reach communities, that's why @sightsavers's work to control & eliminate #trachoma is so crucial. Check out this powerful picture story @guardian https://bit.ly/2wJlnjk & declare #NoToNTDs!

"This #IWD2020, with the theme, #IAmGenerationEquality, we need to address all the various issues that hamper the progress of #women & girls such as Adzo & Mansoura, including Neglected Tropical Diseases (#NTDs)." @Cikucheru https://bit.ly/2xm9aRU

#Women & girls are disproportionately affected by NTDs. Female Genital Schistosomiasis (FGS) is a waterborne NTD affecting 56 million African women & girls. Yet it remains underreported & largely untreated. We must #EndtheNeglect and say #NotoNTDs.
Young people in #Africa have the power to drive positive change, representing 3/4 of the continent’s population. As young leaders of tomorrow, it is essential that youth are informed & engaged with the global vision for the future & our fight to #BeatNTDs #NotoNTDs
#Africa bears 40% of the global #NTD burden. Over 600 million people on the continent still require treatment to prevent or treat #NTDs. If we are to #BeatNTDs by 2030, we must intensify our efforts, our commitments and declare #NotoNTDs!
#NTDs are a diverse group of diseases that have 1 thing in common: They affect more than 1.5 billion people worldwide especially in the most marginalized communities. The #NTD burden is immense but we can change this by saying #NotoNTDs. We can #BeatNTDs, one community at a time.
Great. Young people are potential and essential partners in bringing about positive change. Thank you for integrating and engaging youth in this global vision for the furure. #BeatNTDs #NoToNTDs @ausocialaffairs @shawatam @Elfadil_DSA

#Women & girls are disproportionately affected by Neglected Tropical Diseases (1NTDs). Female genital schistosomiasis (FGS) is a waterborne NTD affecting 56 million #African women & girls. Yet it remains underreported & largely untreated. This is unacceptable.

Progress in the fight against #NTDs relies on making sure that leaders, and the communities they serve, understand what #NTDs are, who they affect, and why incredible progress is possible — and worth fighting for.Together we can say #NoToNTDs @SpeakUpAfrica1
