What We Do

Education on the Mossy Foot Disease
?

In Ethiopia: the Mossy Foot Project strives to educate the population about podoconiosis: what it is and how to treat and prevent it. Along with this we aim to help remove the social stigma associated with the disease so as to be more effective in exposing and treating it. Many of those involved in the education process are present or former patients, who are in an exceptional position to carry the message effectively.

In the U.S: the Mossy Foot Project seeks to raise the level of awareness of podoconiosis and provide a broader understanding of the causes and means of treatment.
