The image features a purple background with the text "Wishing you a joyful Easter." Below, a message reads, "We stand with communities affected by neglected tropical diseases, because hope should reach everyone." At the bottom, there is an illustration of carrots and Easter eggs. The Uniting to Combat Neglected Tropical Diseases logo is in the top right corner.
Hope is not a luxury. 🌸
This Easter, we stand with 1.45 billion people living with #NTDs and we won’t stop until every community is reached. #BeatNTDs #UniteActEliminate
Many of the 1.45 billion living with #NTDs also live with depression, stigma, and exclusion - invisible burdens rarely counted or treated.
@who.int's new Essential Care Package puts mental health at the centre of NTD care.

Neglected tropical diseases affect more than one billion people worldwide, creating cycles of poverty and preventing people from achieving their full potential. Yet they are preventable, treatable, and can be eliminated. This #WorldNTDDay, let’s #UniteActEliminate to #BeatNTDs
All NTDs share one common denominator - a lack of data! By collating & standardising scarce & scattered data, researchers can pool data to generate new knowledge & treatment options.

With the abrupt stop of US government funding last year, more than 100 million people’s lives were put at risk. Dependable, predictable funding being cut puts our path to success at risk. 💔 #WorldNTDDay #UniteActEliminate
Today on #WorldNTDDay, we’re reinforcing our commitment to helping eliminate neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) through our new three-year project with the END Fund. Their expertise means they are ideally placed to deliver this project, helping towards eliminating NTDs 🙌#UniteActEliminate #EndNTDs
A promotional graphic for World NTD Day 2026. The design features a circular emblem with radiating lines and the text “30 January 2026” and “What’s happening for World NTD Day 2026 – Unite. Act. Eliminate.” The graphic invites people to explore events, webinars, and campaigns, and to share their own activities using the hashtag #WorldNTDDay. A QR code and a short link (bit.ly/WNTDD26) are included. At the bottom, the World NTD Day logo appears with the words “30 January – World NTD Day – Neglected Tropical Diseases.”
#WorldNTDDay is a powerful reminder of what’s possible when countries, partners, & communities unite behind a shared mission.
With 58 countries having eliminated at least one NTD, the momentum is real.
