At International Union Leprosy (ILU), our work is driven by the transformative impact we strive to create in the lives of those affected by leprosy. Through our dedicated efforts, we have witnessed profound changes that have rippled through communities, bringing hope, dignity, and empowerment to individuals facing the challenges of this ancient disease.

Empowering Lives:
Through our advocacy initiatives, we have empowered individuals affected by leprosy to raise their voices, assert their rights, and reclaim their rightful place in society. By amplifying their stories and experiences, we challenge stigma and discrimination, fostering an environment of inclusion and acceptance.

Building Awareness:
Our educational campaigns and workshops have played a crucial role in raising awareness about leprosy, dispelling myths, and promoting early diagnosis and treatment. By educating communities, healthcare professionals, and policymakers, we have contributed to reducing the burden of the disease and breaking down barriers to care.

Transforming Communities:
By establishing Child Development Centers and providing support to families affected by leprosy, we have transformed communities from within. Through education, rehabilitation, and livelihood support, we have enabled individuals to lead fulfilling lives, free from the constraints of poverty and discrimination.

Creating Sustainable Change:
Our advocacy efforts extend beyond immediate relief to focus on systemic change. By advocating for policies that promote the rights and welfare of individuals affected by leprosy, we lay the groundwork for long-term, sustainable solutions that address the root causes of inequality and injustice.
