Published by Fistula Care, this facilitator’s guide accompanies a series of digital stories, called Learn from my Story, made by and about 11 Ugandan women who share their stories about how fistula has affected their lives. The guide is designed to help those who wish to have conversations about fistula and to educate groups such as health care providers, women with fistula, community members, and policy makers. It includes discussion questions and key messages for each story. The stories recount hardships and celebrate achievements related to their daily struggles with pregnancy, loss, and relationships, as well as their search for safety, acceptance, and dignity.
