International Lead Poisoning Prevention Week 2022

Overview

The International Lead Poisoning Prevention Week (ILPPW) takes place every year during the third week of October. 2022 will mark 10 years of action to eliminate lead paint. The focus of this year’s week “Say no to lead poisoning” recognizes the additional urgency of action needed to eliminate all sources of lead exposure. Governments, civil society organizations, health partners and others are encouraged to organize campaigns during ILPPW. A range of materials to support campaign activities are made available through the ILPPW website. We invite campaign organizers to register their events on our webpage so that others can see what events are happening in their area.

This toolkit provides customizable social media posts, graphics, and other tools to enable interested parties to support and share campaign messages.

This toolkit is accompanied by an interactive social media builder that enables images to be added to selected tweets about involvement in the International Lead Poisoning Prevention Week of action.

The WHO has additionally published a Resource List which contains key information available from WHO of relevance to ILPPW.
