The Community Dialogues program will provide a platform that draws participants from local,regional and global sickle cell communities as possible to drive exchange and discussions, share stories and experiences, express perspectives and develop solutions to community concerns and identified opportunities.
Unlike debates, the community dialogue emphasizes sharing and listening to deepen understanding of the diverse and often common challenges faced by the different sickle cell communities. It will foster collective learning and encourage respectful, mutually-beneficial local and cross-border relationaships between communities.
