Black History Month: Reclaiming Our Narratives – “We Are Walking, Talking Data Sets”

This Black History Month, RareQoL celebrates the theme of Reclaiming Our Narratives, emphasizing the power of personal stories in shaping healthcare and research. In our RareQoL Community Network, we champion the voices of minority ethnic groups, particularly those living with rare diseases, who are often underrepresented in research. As “walking, talking data sets,” we recognize that every experience contributes to a richer, more inclusive understanding of health.
Our community is growing, and together, we are influencing change—ensuring diverse voices are heard, valued, and reflected in research and care practices. Join us in amplifying these crucial narratives.
