Our Annual Meeting is held a few weeks after World Chagas Disease Day 2024, which is celebrated every April 14 to raise awareness about this disease, considered neglected because it has little attention on the public health agenda. It was first celebrated on April 14, 2020, following approval and endorsement by the World Health Assembly at WHO in May 2019. This year, the theme focus on “early diagnosis, treatment and follow-up”, to raise awareness among patients, their families and health professionals about the need for an early diagnosis and lifelong follow-up for the people affected by this neglected tropical disease. This call has been official recently, in the slogan set by the World Health Organization (WHO) for this year’s campaign: “Tackling Chagas disease: Detect early and care for life”.
Chagas Coalition has promoted this April 14 through a video made from the heart of this year’s campaign, through the voice and participation of stakeholders from the Chagas community and a number of other social sectors worldwide.
