It is a privilege to capture success stories like these! In Malawi Civil Society was able to increase the nutrition budget which goes directly towards districts and community activities. Watch the full film about how @suncivilsociety and @csonamalawi worked with the government to fight against malnutrition: /watch?v=4hrnIHkQeiw
It's incredible what happens when advocacy is done right!
Civil Society Organisations Nutrition Alliance - CSONA Mw partnered with parliamentary nutrition champions and the SUN CSN (Scaling Up Nutrition Civil Society Network), to secure a bigger national nutrition budget and to make sure those resources actually reach the districts that need them most.

📌This #DiabetesAwarenessMonth, we want to hear from you! In our short film Beyond Access to Insulin, we shared two powerful stories of approaches to #DiabetesCare, in Kyrgyzstan and Tanzania. These stories highlight critical elements to diabetes well-being, from ensuring access to treatment, care, education and support to combating stigma & discrimination. 📍Now, we’re inviting you to share your own stories of improving access to diabetes care — whether through government programmes, community-led initiatives or individuals making a difference in their own lives and those of others. Your experiences can inspire action and highlight what’s possible when care goes beyond access. 💬 Share your story today using #DiabetesCare .
💡Need of some inspiration? Watch the clip or visit the full film (link in bio).

🎬 Wrapping up our Lessons Live From #LGcomms25 series!
One key takeaway from our session was this: say less, connect more.
As viewers, we only absorb one or two points from a piece of content. The more you try to pack in, the less people take away. What cuts through isn’t a list of facts - it’s shared values and moments that speak to the heart ❤️
We’ve seen this first-hand on shoots around the world. The most resonant stories aren’t sob stories, but about finding the common threads we all hold.
So here’s our final tip ➡️ Focus on connection over information overload.
That’s the cornerstone of content that people remember.
