Since MycetOS is diversifying we decided as from 2023 to place the monthly meetings no longer under a compound series but separately in this repository.

Please share your ideas on how to promote the projects for World NTD Day.

If your institution has written a press release / social media post, please share that here too so that we can all promote it through our own networks.

For twitter/x we can use this: #mycetoma is a devastating skin disease that can lead to stigma, disability, & amputation and for which no proper medications are available. The open source drug discovery project #MycetOS uses open science to develop novel drugs for mycetoma and everyone can help. Join us at https://github.com/OpenSourceMycetoma #WorldNTDDay

Tweet sent. Have installed link to this at https://github.com/OpenSourceMycetoma/Talks-Meetings-Publicity/wiki/Publicity-on-Themed-Days so can close this Issue. Would be nice to do more, but bandwidth always an issue. Let's all keep an eye out for other opportunities to highlight what we're doing. Wendy and I are on the CDC-led Global Mycetoma Working Group, which can also be used to promote.
