In the inspiring conversation, on the sidelines of UNGA80, Dr Mark Barone, Founder and General Manager, ForumCCNTs, and Ankur Mukherjee, Beyond Type 1 Ambassador, leaders from Brazil and India, discuss why social participation and meaningful engagement are essential in shaping policies for #diabetes and NCDs in general. They explore how listening to people with lived experience leads to smarter, more effective health decisions — and why inclusion, data, and accountability are key to effective response. "If people [with lived experience] are not involved in the decisions, you run the risk of spending all the resources on something that is not what is truly needed," says Mark Barone. Watch now to hear perspectives from the ground on how communities can drive change, influence policy, and ensure that every voice counts in the fight against NCDs. #publichealth #health #healthpolicy #ActOnNCDs
