The Power of Investing in Girls in Sierra Leone with Dr. Adama Kalokoh
•
Dr. Adama Kalokoh
Dr. Adama Kalokoh is a strong advocate for women and girls in her ancestral homeland, Sierra Leone. Her passion for helping others and devotion to the service of humanity was crystalized after she made her first visit to Sierra Leone in 2003 and realized the tremendous need to help rebuild a fragile nation which still harbors the trappings of instability. She felt a great sense of responsibility, challenge and inspiration to become an Ambassador and Agent-of-change for girls and women in Sierra Leone.
She joined me to talk about her work in Sierra Leone and how she has worked tirelessly to raise the consciousness of Americans and the Global Community to the plight of women and girls in Sierra Leone.
