ISDV community unites to raise awareness and call for action in support of people with living with psoriatic disease. World Psoriasis Day has been celebrated on October for more than a decade worldwide, but it is the first time to be celebrated in Iraq.
ISDV is planning to conduct a 1 day event that will gather healthcare providers involved in psoriasis management including Dermatologists, Rheumatologists, Psychiatrists, etc.
