Why I fight for the education of refugee girls (like me) | Mary Maker
Wed, 15 Aug 2018
Description
After fleeing war-torn South Sudan as a child, Mary Maker found security and hope in the school at Kenya's Kakuma Refugee Camp. Now as a teacher of young refugees herself, she sees education as an essential tool for rebuilding lives -- and empowering a generation of girls who are too often denied entrance into the classroom. "For the child of war, an education can turn their tears of loss into a passion for peace," Maker says. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
