FIND warmly congratulates the Government of Chad and the National human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) Program, on the remarkable achievement of eliminating sleeping sickness (human African trypanosomiasis) as a public health problem.

This milestone reflects years of committed leadership, collaboration, and investment in innovation and health systems strengthening. It also marks a major step forward in the fight against neglected tropical diseases for Chad and for the region.

FIND is proud to have partnered with the HAT Program in throughout this journey—from the early stages of diagnostic development to supporting medical interventions, including both passive and active surveillance. This success is a powerful testament to what is possible when science, policy, and community-driven action come together.

Chad’s achievement represents a national victory and a meaningful regional advancement. We celebrate this milestone alongside our partners and reaffirm our commitment to supporting the global, regional and national efforts to eliminate sleeping sickness once and for all.

What women want - hear from more than 97,000 voices across 44 counties, as women and girls throughout Kenya share what they want and need in their daily lives in terms of health. The The White Ribbon Alliance Kenya will share the results of the listening exercise conducted in collaboration with FIND, diagnosis for all on 31 July at 9am. Participate in person in Nairobi or online.

Too often, healthcare systems prioritize top-down approaches, resulting in gaps between services offered and what women and girls actually need. This project was launched to directly understand these needs from women themselves, spanning ages 10 to 65+, and use these insights to inform more dignified, equitable, and responsive health interventions including diagnostics, which are frequently overlooked but essential to quality care. By listening to women and girls and translating their perspectives into policy and practice, we aim to address service gaps, influence policy decisions, and drive systemic change that centres their lived experiences.

This project was a large-scale listening initiative conducted in Kenya to gather and amplify the voices of women and girls on what they need for their health, wellbeing, and self-care, beyond reproductive health.
