    When girls with disabilities have equal access to quality, inclusive education, they’re equipped to #BreakTheBias against women and create a world free of stereotypes and discrimination. sightsavers.org/international-… #IWD2022 #AllMeansAll
    A screenshot of a Sightsavers Twitter poll on a yellow background. The tweet reads: "This or that - #BreakTheBias edition! Vote for what breaking the bias means most to you... #IWD2022." The poll results are 'Girl's education' (71.4%) and 'Call out discrimination' (28.6%).

    Eliminating neglected tropical diseases (#NTDs) as a public health problem would mean: More children can go to school. More parents can earn a living. More communities can escape poverty. We are #100PercentCommitted to #beatNTDs. Are you? sightsavers.org/protecting-sig…
    Illustration of an internet search with the word 'eliminate' in the search bar. The text under says: 1. completely remove or get rid of something. A policy that would eliminate inflation. 2. exclude someone or something from consideration of further participation. The police have eliminated Lawrence from their inquiries.

    On #WorldSightDay, the Countess of Wessex visited Malawi to meet people on the frontline in the fight to #EndTrachoma in the country. She met students who celebrated the achievement by writing letters and sharing the good news. sightsavers.org/stories/2022/1…

    The Countess of Wessex learns about activities of one teen club that was teaching other students about the importance of hygiene to prevent trachoma. The students also wrote letters to their role models about trachoma elimination.

    When his bandage was removed, Amos was able to see again for the first time in three years. So grateful we were able to witness this moment alongside the Countess of Wessex, representatives from @health_malawi, @FCDOGovUK and partners. @RoyalFamily @UKinMalawi
