In August, the spotlight shines on the youth, and I eagerly anticipate this month every year. Over the past 5 years, I have worked with @yacapsl to organize the National Youth Leadership Summit in 🇸🇱 and the impacts have been massive. Keep an eye on this space. #NYLS2023

For the past 5 years, the National Youth Leadership Summit has provided a platform for young people to tap into their potential, express their thoughts, and gain insights into their roles and responsibilities.

It is so satisfying to listen to the feedbacks of young people on their key takeaways from the hybrid conference.
Haja Mariama believes that in an environment where there is no peace, much cannot be achieved.

Did you know that 67% of the total number of voters for this #Elections2023 are young people between ages 15-35?

What does this mean?

For me, it means young people hold the future of #SierraLeone.

#PitchDay: We were so much at ease pitching our ideas to the judges after going through a 2-day robust training on fostering #peace and #youth participation. Our message is clear and simple; 'we stand for peace' and we must get our peers&communities to do the same.

Kick-starting the #16DaysOfActivism today. Women &girls are still subjected to #SGBV & other forms of #Violence. The statistics of women dying due to these issues is still ugly.
Dear world, womankind is degenerating. The future of girls is being stolen
