[IOM Ghana @IOMGhana]

As Ghana marks Independence, we’re reminded that freedom is not only national but also personal.

For many returning Ghanaian women like Sherrifa, independence begins with legal identity; without it, rebuilding life or accessing services is difficult.

Fantastic time speaking at an LSE careers event in London, sharing my journey in communications & international development - from Ghana to the world.

Even more exciting was returning as an alum to engage with students on navigating career paths in today’s evolving landscape.
