We have made significant progress in the last ten years. A world free of podo is achievable. It may be the only non-infectious disease that can be eliminated in the near future. To do so, governments and international donors must commit to expand services for those in need.
There are different ways that you can work with Footwork so that we can reach our goals and improve the lives of those affected by podo.
• A government that wants to ensure your country is mapped and included in our Global Atlas of Podoconiosis;
• A ministry of health that wants support to include podo in your NTD and health plans;
• An NGO that wants to integrate podo into your own health programmes;
• A funder that would like to support our efforts to make a real difference to communities that have been overlooked and neglected for too long;
• An individual who would like to become a podo champion in your country or sector, helping us to raise awareness, grow our networks and maximise our impact.
