Effect Hope Co-Hosting Global NTD Webinar

On September 9, Effect Hope, on behalf of the UPLIFT consortium, will co-host a webinar with iCHORDS on the findings from UPLIFT, a three-year research study conducted across India, Bangladesh, and Ethiopia.   


Co-hosted by Effect Hope, on behalf of the UPLIFT consortium, and iCHORDS, this webinar on September 9 will explore what makes Community-Based Groups (CBGs) sustainable and effective in supporting people affected by skin-related neglected tropical diseases (NTDs).  

Drawing on findings from a three-year UPLIFT study conducted in India, Bangladesh, and Ethiopia, participants will learn how community-based approaches can help reduce stigma, improve well-being, and foster greater social inclusion for people affected by leprosy and other skin-related NTDs.  

Attendees will also be introduced to new practical resources and hear perspectives from researchers, implementing partners, and people with lived experience of NTDs. These real-world insights will help inform future programs, policies, and investments aimed at improving outcomes for affected communities.  

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from global experts and community voices working alongside to advance inclusion and well-being for people affected by NTDs. Register today to reserve your spot.  

Pre-registration is required: Webinar Registration – Zoom
