#YouthBeyondT1D
On September 28, 2021, NCD Child invited young people living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) around the world to engage in a dialogue to share their stories and solutions on how they addressed and managed their T1D. The conversation is a continuation from #YouthBeyondT1D, aimed to amply youth voices and increase awareness of T1D.
With access to the proper care and support, young people living with T1D will not only survive but can thrive by living healthy and fulfilling lives despite their diagnosis.
