Transforming treatment and prevention of Leprosy

Country: Nigeria

Location(s): Country wide

This study seeks to improve self-care in the community for Leprosy patients who are at risk of recurring ulceration based on the ‘implementation science’ approach, and to develop new and improved methods of clinical care for both Leprosy and BU patients when they are in hospital. The project is designed to create an international Community of Practice involving researchers, community and public contributors, clinicians and policy makers.
