Youth drawn from across Taita Taveta County have undergone training on Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) advocacy in a workshop held in Voi town, organised by the NCDs Taita Taveta Youth Advocacy Community-Based Organisation (CBO).
The initiative aims to equip young people with skills to raise awareness on NCDs, offer support to those affected, and drive policy engagement at the grassroots.
Speaking during the training on Thursday, the founder and director of the organisation, Mr.
David Mwakio, said the group comprises youth living with NCDs, caregivers, and young advocates who are passionate about addressing the growing burden of non-communicable diseases.
