We're thrilled to see Jalia Mwagale, an EmpowerHerChallenge winner, a competition we held in August aimed at developing solutions that bridge the gap in gender responsive service delivery taking action against sickle cell disease in Pakwach! Her awareness campaign brought together stakeholders, amplifying the voices of those affected. Jalia's initiative showcases the power of youth-led change. By taking ownership of issues impacting her community, she's inspiring others to do the same. #SickleCellAwarenessMonth #BeSeenAndHeard
