Organized by the Global Onchocerciasis Network for Elimination (GONE)
Sustainable financing is essential to achieving and sustaining progress towards the elimination of onchocerciasis and other neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), particularly as the global financing landscape continues to evolve.
This webinar will bring together country representatives, public health experts and partners to share practical experiences in domestic resource mobilization, highlight successful approaches and lessons learned, and explore remaining challenges. Building on existing partner initiatives and country experiences, discussions will focus on translating financing opportunities into concrete action.
Participants will gain insights into available financing opportunities, tools to support advocacy and resource mobilization, and practical steps to strengthen sustainable financing for onchocerciasis and NTD elimination.
Languages: English and French, with simultaneous interpretation.
