In partnership with the International League of Dermatological
Societies (ILDS) and the 24th World Congress of Dermatology (WCD),
L’Oréal announced the laureates of the third International Awards
for Social Responsibility in Dermatology: “Caring to Inspire Skin
Confidence”.
This aims to reward social initiatives led by dermatologists,
improving patients’ physical and psychological well-being,
self-esteem, social integration and skin health, and enabling
patients to re-engage socially.
Brigitte Liberman, President of L’Oréal’s Active
Cosmetics Division, said: “Social responsibility is a priority for
L’Oréal and we are proud to partner with the ILDS and the WCD to
reward iconic dermatologists having positive actions on people’s
lives”.Professor Harvey Lui, President of the ILDS, added:
“Beyond the day-to-day activities of dermatologists in managing
patients with skin issues, there is a vital social role, which is
exemplified through our partnership for these awards and lies at
the heart of the ILDS philosophy to promote skin health for the
world.”
A total of 123 projects across the world were evaluated by a
panel of experts. Dermatological projects fulfilling at least one
of the following three categories were accepted for assessment:–
Prevention and education on skin health;– Improved quality of life
and self-esteem for people facing skin issues;– Access to care,
coverage and surgery.
An independent jury of dermatologists representing the ILDS
selected the top five projects (see list below and in our
Press Kit). Professor Giovanni Pellacani, President of WCD and
jury member, said: “We are very pleased to give the awards in
front of the dermatological community in the context of the World
Congress of Dermatology.”
