Testimonials

Loiasis is a more than neglected disease occurring mostly in remote rural regions. It affects financially underprivileged communities.

These are reasons why loiasis lacks visibility among decision makers and the wider public. This explains why it is difficult for many of us to relate to the disease, to understand its impact and to recognize its importance for affected communities.

To address this challenge, we let people tell their own stories.
