This is our second Sightsavers neglected tropical diseases (NTD) strategy. The first set ambitious themes for Sightsavers, and this strategy builds on those original themes.

This document highlights new goals in our NTD work and provides a map of the roads to get there during our new strategic period. Our approach is fully in line with what NTD endemic countries have identified as a priority within their NTD master plans.

We focus on and will continue to focus our efforts on five NTDs: intestinal worms (soil-transmitted helminths), lymphatic filariasis (LF), river blindness (onchocerciasis), schistosomiasis and trachoma. Publication date: May 2021
