Convo Africa Magazine Issue 005

THIS ISSUE’S FOCUS

It is not enough to talk about reaching the lost and helping the marginalized populations in the community. We need to actually do something about it. This being our mental health awareness month at Convo, we chose to share stories of people who have been helped and others who have been helpers for those struggling with SUDs.

Feature Story: Pastor Mary Kebbie, who runs a street families ministry aimed at helping street families out of their vulnerable and destitute living conditions. The ministry has been the hands of Jesus, demonstrating the love of God to many who are all alone on the streets.

Personal Testimony: Martin Mawira shares his story as someone who has been helped to help others. He has recovered from an unimaginable illness and now serves as an addiction counsellor, living proof that recovery from SUDs is indeed possible.

More stories shared in this issue are meant to show that there is hope and help for those still struggling.

I invite you to read through and listen to our conversations on our YouTube channel because this is a conversation that matters. If you are struggling with a SUD, help is available for you—all you need to do is reach out.

Type 7 Depression: What It Is & Why It Matters in Africa

Brain imaging research has identified seven distinct types of depression, and Type 7 is the one most people have never heard of.

1.2 Billion Reasons to Start the Conversation: The Global Mental Health Crisis Africa Cannot Ignore

Anxiety has risen by 158%. Depression by 131%. Across 204 countries and territories, every single mental disorder tracked by researchers showed an increase since 1990.

A Kenyan Son of the Soil Who Is RewritingCancer’s Story

His story is not just about one man. It is proof that Africa's scientists, given the platform, can change the world, and a promise that someday, every cancer will have an answer.
