Navjyoti’s Legacy & Nada India’s Mission: Strengthening Peer-Led Solutions for Public Health

Reflecting on Navjyoti’ s impactful journey and the legacy of its UNODC project, I’m inspired by how it brought together experts and communities to create transformative change. Yesterday, with Anuj and over 120 participants, I revisited these milestones, realizing their relevance today—especially as Nada India continues this mission, addressing how #TB and #NCDs disproportionately impact drug users. I’d love to hear your thoughts on how peer-led initiatives like these can be a learning opportunity for psychiatric social workers and public health professionals.

Let’s explore how these stories can inform and inspire our collective work for healthier communities. vsuneel@gmail.com
