In 1991, the World Health Assembly passed a resolution to eliminate leprosy before 2000.

The assembly again set another target and directed the 3 countries to meet target by the end of 2009.
WHO considers a disease eliminated once the number of cases in a country drops to less than 1 instance per 10,000 people.
