NTDs Youth Organization
We are a youth organization focused on Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs), a group of 21 diseases that affect 1.6 billion people worldwide, mainly in tropical regions. With the aim of eliminating NTDs, we are carrying out awareness raising activities and advocacy activities (including policy recommendations) to convey the importance of this issue, together with domestic and international partners involved in NTDs.
