The National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, has launched a nationwide logo design contest for the “Program for Prevention and Control of Leptospirosis (PPCL)”.
The initiative, run in collaboration with MyGov, encourages citizens to design a visual identity that highlights public health, hygiene, and the One Health approach involving human, animal, and environmental sectors.
The PPCL addresses the prevention and control of leptospirosis, a significant public health issue in India. The program aims to reduce the disease burden through timely detection and community engagement. NCDC has called on creative minds across the country to represent this mission through a unique logo.
Design for a healthier tomorrow!
