The World Scabies Program is marking International Women’s Day by celebrating Rose Kamoa, a MDA Officer in Kiribati. Rose's background includes working on public health programs with the Health Promotion Unit at the Kiribati Ministry of Health and Medical Services. During her time at UNICEF, she worked as a Health System Strengthening Officer where she contributed to improving service delivery and health outcomes in the Outer Islands in Kiribati.

Rose started with the World Scabies Program in March 2025 and has been vital to the success of the program in Kiribati. Rose’s current role supports the implementation of mass drug administration activities and prevalence surveys including assisting with training, data collection, supervision of activities, including travelling to the Outer Islands. 

Let’s celebrate Rose’s meaningful impact across Kiribati!
