The document outlines the 55-year history of the Marie Adelaide Leprosy Centre (MALC) in Pakistan. It began in 1955 as a small leprosy clinic and has since expanded to address tuberculosis, blindness, and community development. Key events include MALC gaining recognition as a national training institute for leprosy in 1981 and the introduction of Multi-Drug Therapy in 1983 which helped control and eventually eliminate leprosy in Pakistan by 1996. More recently, MALC has participated in disaster relief efforts and begun integrating leprosy treatment into general healthcare services while continuing its community development work.
