Fighting for a Just Cause - World Leprosy Day
We also heard from Mr Otto Kingsley from the Leprosy Mission. Yesterday it was World Leprosy Day and this day is observed each year on the last Sunday in January by the organisations involved in leprosy including the World Health Organisation. This is year’s theme was Fighting for a Just Cause. Mr Kingsley says much still remains to be done to foster respect for the rights and dignity of those who are affected by this disease and to eradicate discrimination against them. He explained more about Leprosy and how we can get involved in fighting for a Just Cause. For more information you can contact (021) 558 2020 or visit www.leprosymission.co.za
