In the last 20 years, the world has witnessed the biggest in than any other times in human history - from social networking of more than 3 billion people to drones, robots and AI transforming the landscape of how we live and work. Yet more than 3 billion people are disenfranchised. These people live in underserved communities with little to no internet coverage, suffer the most from preventable diseases - like , and other neglected tropical diseases ( ) - and bear the highest burden of global warming resulting from our collective negligence.
The World Dengue Day which is also 2024 (June 15th, 2024) leaves little to celebrate than for us to forge ahead, build , do away with the things that separate rather than unite us - like favouritism, nepotism and racism - and rather favour merit and hard work, which can help us to achieve our collective goals such as the United Nations , African , and the World Health Organization's ( ) Universal Health Coverage ( ) before the deadline of 2030, barely 6 years to go.
Children are the most impacted by this disenfranchisement, but everyone stands to gain when we win over malaria, its close ally Dengue and other NTDs.
For us at Kick Out Malaria, the fact that these diseases are preventable gives us encouragement and the drive to keep working day and night to ensure the safe and active participation of children, families and their communities in underserved locations, without which the multilateral efforts cannot yield a lasting result.
Our Kick Out Malaria series comprising , story , computer video and video episodes is thoughtfully designed to complement the multilateral efforts in eradicating malaria, dengue and other NTDs in our time.
