Zero Leprosy Project Indonesia
Country: Indonesia
Location(s): Maluku, North Maluku, North sulawesi, South Sulawesi, Central Sulawesi, East Nusa Tenggara, East Java, West Java, Central Java
By the end of the Zero Leprosy Project, within the next 3 years (2024-2026), the goal is to reduce leprosy transmission by 30% (in average) within the 37 districts (intervention areas) in Indonesia by improving participation (increasing inclusion or reduce exclusion) of persons affected by leprosy and strengthening integration of policy and programs across multi stakeholders. Nationwide, our project’s goal is to also contribute to replication and implementation of the National Action Plan in other endemic districts (non-intervention areas) through advocacy and provision of technical support, with an expectation that it will eventually also contribute in reducing annual national new cases.
