We were pleased to present our findings on the determinants of HPV vaccination in Cameroon at the @CHIC symposium in Kenya from October 1 to 3, 2025.

Ethical storytelling in #NTDs is shifting power. At a #NNN2025 workshop led by @tlmnepal with support from @DNDi , @TheENDFund & @BSMSMedSchool, participants learned about Photovoice, a method that centres lived experience through respectful, collaborative storytelling.
With challenging funding landscapes/differing donor priorities, local organizations can and do support research and dissemination. Thanks to @njohfoundation for ensuring our FGS/schisto work goes on. Visit our posters on HPV/FGS at #IPVS2025 and Health systems/FGS at #NNN2025

Great work @njohfoundation. Kudos for taking huge steps in filling the gap in education and research in Cameroon
The Njoh Foundation provided school materials and full scholarships to people in Buea and Yaounde, Cameroon, in September 2025.

"It's not just #COVID19 that is killing people,
it's underprivilege,
it's lack of access,
it's years of living with health conditions that haven't been properly managed because of the colour of your skin, or your ethnicity, or your social group"- @DrMikeRyan #HealthForAll
