A dedicated website for the Global Appeal 2023 to End Stigma and Discrimination against Persons Affected by Leprosy has been created.

This year, the Global Appeal will be launched during the “International Symposium at the Vatican on Hansen’s Disease: Leave No One Behind” which will be co-hosted by Sasakawa Leprosy (Hansen’s Disease) Initiative, the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development, French Raoul Follereau Fondation and Italian Association Amici di Raoul Follereau on January 23 to 24, 2023 in the Vatican city. The Appeal is being endorsed by the organizers and participants of the symposium.

After the two-day symposium, the launch ceremony of the Global Appeal 2023 as well as other programs of the symposium will be posted on this site.
