On January 30, the world assembled at various locations to commemorate the World Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTD) Day, which was first recognised on May 31, 2021 following the unanimous approval by WHO member states.
In the global fight against NTDs, this year places a renewed emphasis on the rallying call to "Unite. Act. Eliminate". This overarching theme underscores the necessity for coordinated actions and collaboration to eliminate the burden of NTDs worldwide.
