What if health information was easy to understand regardless of one's education, in the form of stories that are relatable and informative? During a health crisis, lots of people seek information concerning their health and could fall victim to charlatans who coerce them into practices that are not scientifically proven.

Storia di vita is a new series that addresses health issues using stories and also used as a means to relax in these stressful times. Storia di vita is an Italian word that means story of life, implying that this series concentrates on telling life stories in a fictitious but relevant way to address some health concerns that we face as people.

This project aims to educate the public on health issues with the aid of stories and is not a substitute for the role of a primary caregiver. The mission of this program is to create an exciting health education platform in Ghana that aims to simplify health information; by using stories written in our local setting.

The maiden edition will be premiering on the 15th of July at 6:00 GMT at healthoxhub.com. At the end of each episode, questions will be asked, and the first person to answer the questions correctly on ten consecutive weeks gets to win 100 Ghana cedis cash.
