Nearly 40% of the world's population resides in tropical countries, and the prevalence of skin diseases in these regions is rising at an alarming rate. Tropical skin diseases are unique, and challenging to treat. Furthermore, these diseases are no longer limited to tropical regions. Due to increased travel and migration, dermatologists outside the tropics are encountering patients with tropical skin diseases with increasing frequency. Therefore, a sound knowledge of tropical dermatology is an asset to any dermatologist.

The second International Conference on Tropical Dermatology (ICTD) promises to be an enriching experience, featuring distinguished clinicians and researchers who will share their insights through lectures on various topics. The conference will provide an in-depth discussion of tropical infections such as leprosy, leishmaniasis, and dermatophytosis. Moreover, tropical dermatology extends beyond infections. The program will also cover interesting topics such as pigmentory disorders, environmental dermatology, and cultural dermatology. Additionally, a special pre-congress session will focus on Aesthetics in Skin of Colour, addressing critical issues related to aesthetic treatments for patients with skin of colour.

Additionally, we are thrilled to invite you to the highlight of our tropical dermatology program on the 14th of March, at the National Hospital of Colombo, Sri Lanka. This clinical meeting will feature a variety of patients with tropical skin diseases, providing a unique opportunity to examine and discuss cases in small teams alongside esteemed Sri Lankan dermatologists.

The second International Conference on Tropical Dermatology (ICTD) represents a fantastic opportunity for the global dermatology community to enhance their knowledge, build connections, and initiate collaborative research while experiencing the warm hospitality of Sri Lanka.
