Stowelink’s Chief Programmes Officer my Oduor Kevin was elected as the secretary to the national caucus of people living with NCDs in kenya. This was especially a big win as he not only serves as the secretary but also represents the strength and influence that young people have in the work on non-communicable diseases.
The national caucus of people living with NCDs in Kenya is a membership group from the NCDS Alliance Of Kenya that aims at representing the voices of lived experience. As we know people living with NCDs offer unique and powerful insights into issues and challenges of tackling NCDs on a day-to day basis. Individuals living with NCDs, their care partners and relatives grasp the issues and challenges they face the best, which gives them first-hand knowledge that cannot be replaced by technical expertise.
The meaningful involvement of people living with NCDs is a critical element of an effective NCD response. From policymaking to awareness raising, clinical trials, academic research, advocacy, organizational governance, and more, people living with NCDs can contribute to many different facets of the NCD response and act as role models breaking barriers to inclusion.
