On a recent training night, we shared our stories, fears and expectations. It was clear from that night that we all had different sides to the full story of Sierra Leone and what is going on there. What is your picture of Sierra Leone? What images come to mind when you think of Africa? What is your story?
I encourage you to watch the video below, which outlines the danger of a single story and how each one of us are prone to do this...
As we prepare to go, we are choosing to empty our minds of the constructs that we have believed in about Sierra Leone. We will go open to learn, ready to learn many more stories about a nation whose stories are yet to be written.
