South Sudan: The Gifts of Sight

Despite profound challenges, South Sudan has persevered in providing treatment for people who are at risk of going blind from advanced cases of the neglected tropical disease trachoma.

The Carter Center is guided by the principles of our Founders, Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter. Founded, in partnership with Emory University, on a fundamental commitment to human rights and the alleviation of human suffering, the Center seeks to prevent and resolve conflicts, enhance freedom and democracy, and improve health.
