Losing my mother during childbirth shifted my focus from wanting to be a journalist to having a deeper understanding of the socioeconomic, political, geographical and cultural determinants of poor health in The Gambia. Ashinaga has been the greatest driving force in achieving my dream of being a Global Health specialist by giving me the opportunity to study in one of the world’s best universities, training me to be a better leader and helping me grow to the best version of myself.

Getting into the Ashinaga programme came as a light of hope at a moment when my future seemed all but certain. It gave me hope for the future, but most importantly, it has enabled me to meet fantastically bright students from all over Africa with a similar background and a similar goal for the continent.

Ashinaga have presented me with many opportunities which have allowed me to come out of my comfort zone and become the confident woman I am today. I now believe that I can achieve anything I set my mind to.”
