Christopher Agbega

Music and social justice have been part of Christopher Agbega’s life since he was a young boy. Following his diagnosis with Hereditary Motor Sensory Neuropathy at the age of 16, his life changed drastically. Rather than giving in to this debilitating auto-immune disease, Christopher became an advocate for all people living with NCDs. As a peer trainer with ShareCare Ghana and the Ghana Noncommunicable Disease Alliance, he shares his lived experiences with other people living with NCDs, encouraging and inspiring them to share their own and raise awareness on NCDs. A vital part of the team that developed the Ghana Advocacy Agenda of People Living with NCDs, Christopher is unwavering in his belief that health equity– and music – for all, are at the heart of positive change.
