“Going Full Circle” gives a view into life for women living with diabetes in India, and the myriad of social, emotional and economic challenges that go beyond managing blood sugar.
Diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in their childhoods, Nupur Lalvani and Snehal Nandagawli dedicate their lives to supporting women living with diabetes across India through the Pune-based, patient-led Blue Circle Diabetes Foundation. The circles of care created by peer support groups play a crucial role in educating communities, advocating for insulin for all and providing practical and emotional support. Nupur and Snehal show us how their circle helps to ensure access and empower women, especially in underserved areas.
