WHO Global Leprosy Strategy
The WHO Global Leprosy Strategy 2021–2030, titled ‘Towards zero leprosy’, was developed collaboratively with stakeholders in 2019 and 2020. It aims to support the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals and is built on four pillars: implementing country-owned zero leprosy roadmaps; scaling up prevention and active case detection; managing leprosy and its complications; and combating stigma while respecting human rights. The Strategy prioritizes interrupting transmission and eliminating the disease. (Reference link)
