This week, we have a powerhouse in disability advocacy and epilepsy awareness—Nina Mago. As the Founder and CEO of the Purple Bench Initiative, Nina has dedicated over a decade to transforming public health narratives, breaking stigma, and securing access to epilepsy care for marginalized communities in Uganda and beyond. Her work with global organizations like the World Health Organization (WHO), the International Bureau for Epilepsy (IBE), and the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE), has influenced policies and contributed to international epilepsy toolkits.
Beyond policy advocacy, Nina is actively reshaping societal attitudes through education, media campaigns, and mentorship, ensuring that young people living with epilepsy are seen, heard, and supported.
In this episode, Nina Mago shares:
• Her personal Journey with Epilepsy & the defining moment in her journey that solidified her commitment to this cause
• Her understanding of Epilepsy & experiences with stigma, some common misconceptions about epilepsy and more
Join us on this exciting episode as we explore her journey, the challenges faced by individuals with epilepsy, and how we can all contribute to a more inclusive society.
