The goal of the Walk a Mile in My Shoes campaign and International EB Awareness Week is to obtain and publicize proclamations from as many countries worldwide as possible, then to seek the endorsement of "our week" from the United Nations and the World Health Organization. 

Depending entirely upon our community's effort, this endorsement request may be made in 2010, or in a later year of outreach.  Let's aim for 2010!
