Abstract
A good level of knowledge, attitude and perception is needed for a massive adherence of population to onchocerciasis control programmes. In the area of study (Moanza, DRC), good attitude and perception motivated the continuation of treatment in the population. In the future, different plans should focus on educational strategies to maintain a massive adherence and reduce onchocerciasis prevalence.
