PRESENTED AT THE 23RD WORLD CONGRESS OF DERMATOLOGY
VANCOUVER, CANADA, JUNE 8–13, 2015
THE AWARD
People with dermatological conditions may frequently face discrimination and feel
socially excluded. L’Oréal is committed to recognizing the significant and positive
social impact of dermatologists, when helping patients to restore their self-confidence
in living with their conditions on a daily basis.
These awards are aimed at all voluntary initiatives run by dermatologists in three main areas:
- Educating patients and providing support for preventing dermatological conditions
- Improving the physical and psychological quality of life and self-esteem of those affected
- Providing patients with better access to care, coverage and surgery
WHO WAS ELIGIBLE?
The project must fall specifically within the scope of a community
project: a social project.
All dermatology initiatives coming from individuals, associations or hospitals focused on patients with the aim of improving their physical and psychological well-being, self-esteem and social integration.
