This episode features testimonies from caregivers, who describe their experiences and reflect on the policies they need to support their work. Speakers:Sharifah Tahir, Founder and CEO, UMI Dementia Care and Resource CenterConnie Mkhabela, Founder of Lindokhule and SmartStart practitionerHosted by Yara Tarabulsi, Outreach and Advocacy Officer, Global Alliance for CareLos cuidados son fundamentales para nuestras vidas, sociedades y economías.
