Ending NTDs is possible within our lifetime – now is the moment for us all to show our commitment.
Over the past decade, incredible progress has been made against NTDs – a group of 20 diseases that debilitate, disfigure and can kill. Efforts to tackle NTDs are a global health success story, but there is still a lot more work to be done before the world is free of NTDs. Together, we call on our governments, parliamentarians, mayors and local governmental leaders, as well as continental and regional bodies, pharmaceutical companies, donors, multilateral organisations, academic and research institutions, non-governmental organisations and young leaders around the world, to show they are 100% Committed to ending NTDs by signing the Kigali Declaration on NTDs and pledging commitments.
