Location: Quezon City, Philippines
Type of event: Community education
Description: We will raise public awareness on the importance of Skin Health in order to enhance control of leprosy and other Skin NTDs (ex. yaws, mycetoma, head lice, scabies, filariasis) in the Philippines. Infomercials (3 – 4 minutes@) in English and Filipino will be produced and repeatedly shown to the public in social media, in different venues and dates to share key messages (basic facts, treatment, prevention, stop stigma). A media blitz will feature skin NTDs over 2 weeks (press conference on World NTD Day, press releases, guestings in public service shows on TV, radio, social media).
