Addressing Trachoma among Refugees in Zambia's Mayukwayukwa Settlement

Special populations, including refugees, internally displaced persons, indigenous and nomadic communities, vary significantly in terms of their cultural practices, spoken languages, and socioeconomic and political status. However, many special populations share common challenges in accessing health services, including interventions for trachoma, the world’s leading infectious cause of blindness. This case study presents experiences from Zambia aimed at improving access to trachoma interventions for refugees.
