The Canadian Network for Neglected Tropical Diseases is collaborating with the Canadian Association for Global Health (CAGH-ACSM) for International Development Week 2022 to host a webinar addressing the impact of NTDs on the health of women and adolescent girls.

Did you know that more than 500 million adolescent girls and women of reproductive age (including over 100 million pregnant and lactating women) are at risk of morbidity caused by soil-transmitted helminth and schistosome infections?

Join us and our speakers to learn more about the Kigali Declaration, WHO’s NTD road map, and WHO’s Policy Brief on deworming adolescent girls and women of reproductive age launched in early February 2022.
