Albinism is a rare, non-contagious, genetically inherited difference present at birth. In almost all types of albinism, both parents must carry the gene for it to be passed on, even if they do not have albinism themselves. #AlbinismDay #InternationalAlbinismAwarenessDay #Albino

Sights from rural Majuru where women and girls received sanitary wear. It is the fundamental right of every woman and girl to be able to manage her menstruation hygienically. Sadly many are forced to resort to unsanitary and unsafe makeshift means, due to period poverty.
As we celebrate International Albinism Awareness Day let us unite and fight against the discrimination and the abuse of the rights of people with Albinism. Albinism is beautiful and the lives of people with Albinism matter.#AlbinismAwareness
Killing and abusing people with Albinism must stop. We are one, let us unite and fight against these injustices. #AlbinismAwareness

One of the groups of people who are hugely affected by the lockdown, are the people with albinism. These people need constant and continuous care. They need sunscreen to protect them from the sun effects. They cannot access these items currently hence their lives in danger.
We are human beings, we all deserve to be treated with love and respect. Let us join together and fight against the abuse of the rights of people with Albinism.#AlbinismAwareness

There's beauty in albinism: u don't have to be ashamed of yourself or of your relative cause of it
Here's what you need to know/do:
1) limit your exposure to sunlight
2) wear appropriate hat and clothin
3) Use your sun screen diligently
4) sunscreens containing SPF

People with Albinism face alot of stigma in societies because people have little or no knowledge about Albinism.This has resulted in the spread of myths to try and explain Albinism.#AlbinismAwareness

Albinism is not a curse, it is a condition that is inherited in an autosomal recessive way. This means that for a child to be born with Albinism, they would have inherited two copies of the Albinism gene from the mother and the father.#AlbinismAwareness
