 Hi, my name is Umar Shafi. I am a stronger safety trial manager and also a PhD student at London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. Stronger safety is a collaborative research project between the Federal Ministry of Health of Ethiopia, the Federalist Foundation and London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. Trakoma is a big problem in Ethiopia. Ethiopia has the highest prevalence globally. It is caused by chlamydia trakomatis. It is a painful experience for people who experience it. Through repeated infection, it turns the eyelashes inward and eventually gets you blind. Currently, WHO recommends a safe strategy to control trakoma. SAFE is an acronym which stands for Surgery Antibiotic Facial Cleanness and Environmental Hygiene Sanitation. Despite the many efforts to implement SAFE strategy in Ethiopia, the prevalence remains high for many complicated reasons. That's why we wanted to do this research in Ethiopia. The aim of stronger safety trial is to enhance the current WHO recommended SAFE strategy by investigating new interventions to control trakoma. In our study area in Oromiya, our participants receive two doses of antibiotic as opposed to one dose. We also implement a multi-level behavioral change. Interventions, particularly focusing on preschool children. We also distribute traps and also give headwares to repel flies. By doing all these interventions, our hope is that we will reduce the transmission in our intervention area as opposed to the normal trakoma control areas. We hope it will be practical and sustainable for people to use. We also believe that it's scalable to a larger area because we co-develop the interventions with the community. We hope these interventions could also be scaled up in the whole of Ethiopia and reduce trakoma and blindness.
