In 2023, Bridges to Development (Bridges) joined forces with The Geneva Learning Foundation (TGLF) to orchestrate a unique digital learning event focused on Female Genital Schistosomiasis (FGS). This ground-breaking workshop was designed to engage health professionals across Francophone Africa, equipping them with the tools to combat, diagnose, treat, and raise awareness of this chronically neglected disease within their spheres of practice and amongst the communities they work with. Locally driven solutions are at the core, fuelling our mission to drive change and foster empowerment amongst health workers on the frontline.
