Community members came together to observe the 73rd World Leprosy Day through a meaningful awareness event. The message shared during the event was simple yet powerful: Leprosy is curable — stigma is the real disease!
While medical treatment can completely cure leprosy, misinformation and discrimination continue to affect the lives of those impacted. Events like these play an important role in breaking myths, promoting early diagnosis and treatment, and building a more compassionate and informed society.
Together, we can help end stigma and ensure dignity, respect, and health for all.
