Download or read book People are Not the Same written by Eric Silla and published by James Currey. This book was released on 1998 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text draws upon an extensive collection of life histories to elaborate the perspectives of patients themselves who suffer from leprosy in Mali. It describes the transformation of leper identities with changes in medical and social responses to the disease. By situating seemingly local experiences of patients within the larger context of national and global change, the author aims to deepen our understanding of a range of issues including stigma, marginality, begging and migration. He explains how the dibilitating nature of leprosy interfered with one's ability to marry, farm and participate in other facets of normal life. Leprosy sufferers became outcasts in their villages and often migrated to treatment centres in Bamako and other towns. At these centres, patients constructed self-conscious communities which empowered them socially and politically.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Leprosy as a public health problem was eliminated at the national level by most countries by the end of 2005. In the post-elimination phase of leprosy control, prevalence has decreased gradually, but the new case detection has remained at the same level in at least 18 high-endemic countries for leprosy, which reported more than 1000 new cases annually. The stagnation is more pronounced between 2008-2012. Stagnation in leprosy control was attributed to many technical and operational challenges prevailing in the 18 high-endemic countries. WHO with The Nippon Foundation (TNF), jointly organized the 'International Leprosy Summit: overcoming the remaining challenges' inviting participation of ministers of health from 17 endemic countries and experts from partner organizations. The Summit was organized to reaffirm political commitment from the governments of the seventeen leprosy-endemic countries. The ministers of health deliberated on the remaining challenges and affirmed political commitment to further reduce disease burden due to leprosy. The 'Bangkok Declaration' was signed by the Ministers of Health of all the 17 countries. The Bangkok Declaration urges governments to strengthen monitoring of the leprosy programmes and participation of persons affected by leprosy in order to achieve the targets of enhanced global leprosy strategy for further reducing the disease burden due to leprosy. Mr Yohei Sasakawa, Goodwill Ambassador for Leprosy Elimination on behalf of TNF pledged US $2 million for implementing the Bangkok Declaration. Similar support was also announced by other international leprosy organizations during the Summit."--Page 4 of cover
