✨ Day 3 - the day our Warriors took the stage ✨
The day 3 focus was advocacy.
What do you want?
Why do you want it?
And, who has the power to make it happen?
Our Warriors worked in groups, built case studies, and each wrote a personal pledge to use their voice for change. For children living with Type 1 diabetes, advocacy is never abstract.
Just as important was a breakout session for caregivers, who spoke openly about the realities of raising children with chronic conditions. The fears, the financial pressures, the resilience. Parents carry these burdens, and at Camp Mukundi their voices were part of the curriculum.
And then, as evening fell — the moment the whole camp had been rehearsing for: the talent show!
The evening was filled with poems, music and group performances the children had rehearsed all week. The highlight was a moving drama performed by Warriors, caregivers and healthcare professionals together, telling the story of the stigma many children with chronic conditions still face.
It was entertaining, but it also carried a message that no presentation could have delivered quite the same way.
