We’re excited to share this case study which highlights the importance of #InclusiveWASH for people affected by NTDs. The case study features the story of Anas who was part of CBM’s work in Nigeria with our partner @Hands_Nigeria. #BeatNTDs
On #DisabilityDay, let’s highlight how inclusive WASH and #NTD efforts empower persons with disabilities, breaking barriers of stigma and exclusion. Inclusive #WASH isn't just access—it's dignity and equity. Download the case study here: https://t.co/hF5io6XeOi
