This drawing is prepared by Berkan who is one of our collegue. Its represeanting that Meningitis is a monster that wants to kill the kids but Meningitis Fighters/ Organisations can rescue with vaccines. Hope it can give the correct message . Thanks. Mehmet GENCEL ( Meningitis Info Center - Turkey)

Ms Koguchi is a mother of a girl who recovered from bacterial meningitis. She is a copper engraver. And this work has imaged a child fighting against meningitis.

Kudos to World Health Organization and every other stakeholders that have made it possible achieving the "Roadmap to Defeat Meningitis by 2030. Nobody deserve to go through the plights and trauma of meningitis and it's aftermath.

“Nobody deserves the trauma associated with meningitis’ Having lost her limbs to meningitis as a teenager, poor Favour; finds it so difficult to fully support her children in their daily chores and as a single mother. She feels so bad looking at her teenage daughter assuming the roles of a mother. In view of this, Favour wants meningitis defeated, so that no one else would go through the traumatic experiences which she has undergone and still going through.
