  abstract = {The Global Leprosy Strategy 2021–2030 “Towards zero leprosy” was developed through a broad consultative process with all major stakeholders during 2019 and 2020. Valuable inputs were provided by national leprosy programme managers, technical agencies, public health and leprosy experts, funding agencies and persons or members of communities directly affected by leprosy.
<br><br>
The Strategy aims to contribute to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. It is structured along four pillars:
<br><br>
(‎i)‎ implement integrated, country-owned zero leprosy road maps in all endemic countries;<br>
(‎ii)‎ scale up leprosy prevention alongside integrated active case detection;<br>
(‎iii)‎ manage leprosy and its complications and prevent new disability; and<br>
(‎iv)‎ combat stigma and ensure human rights are respected. Interruption of transmission and elimination of disease are at the core of the Strategy.},
