Dr Amir Kello
Technical Officer, Trachoma
“I am very pleased to join the ESPEN team as a Medical Officer for Trachoma in August 2018 just weeks after Ghana has been validated as the first county in WHO/AFRO region as having eliminated trachoma as a public health problem. I do have high hopes that ESPEN, together with other trachoma stakeholders, would significantly contribute towards making the elimination of trachoma as a public health problem in several endemic Sub-Saharan Africa countries by the year 2020 a reality.”
