Ascend: Lessons from the programme in West and Central Africa
6 October 2022, Virtual Event
RSTMH and Sightsavers have made the decision to make this event online only, in order to maximise accessibility and engagement. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
The event, run in partnership with RSTMH and Sightsavers, will provide an opportunity to share and discuss key findings from a new collection of research papers, “Ascend: Lessons from the programme in West and Central Africa”, which various Ascend consortium partners collaboratively contributed to. This looks at the impressive impact of the programme, such as supporting the distribution of around 280 million drug treatments and the elimination of river blindness across three states in Nigeria, and how to build on its success.
The event will take place on Zoom on the afternoon of 6 October 2022.
