Drugs For Neglected Diseases initiative (DNDi) sought to create content that could remain relevant year-round without requiring constant updates. To meet this need, I developed a series of Disease Evergreen pieces—content designed to convey critical, unchanging facts about neglected diseases while maintaining their impact over time. This initiative was rooted in collaboration, as I worked closely with researchers and referenced the annual report to ensure the accuracy and relevance of the information.

To enhance accessibility and usability, I designed these pieces in Canva, empowering non-designer colleagues to make simple edits as needed. This approach ensured the content could be updated efficiently without compromising its visual integrity. At the heart of these designs was a focus on the individuals affected—those often overlooked in the global health narrative. Through prominent, dynamic, and captivating imagery, I placed these individuals at the forefront, portraying them as patients and heroes in the ongoing fight for treatments for neglected diseases.

As the creative lead on this project, I aimed to balance functionality with storytelling, crafting informative and deeply human designs. By revealing the heroism of those affected and the researchers working tirelessly for change, the designs served as a powerful reminder of DNDi’s mission while providing a lasting, impactful resource for advocacy and education.
