Gabriela Pavarini, with colleagues from NCD Child and UNICEF, is organising a webinar that will bring together a group of young for a conversation on mental health and non-communicable diseases (NCDs) during the COVID-19 pandemic.
When: 3pm – 4pm, Wednesday 11 May 2022
The conversation will explore what it is like to live with one or more NCDs during the pandemic and practical steps to protect mental health and wellbeing for all young people.
