 Over Mij |
Ahmeda Mansaray is the Founder and CEO for Voices of the Voiceless®, a youth focused, non-profit, International Health Development Organization. A self-described "bricoleur", Ahmeda strongly believes in utilizing her education, talents and skills towards reducing the health disparities between and within the "developed" and the "developing" world. An equally dedicated paladin for Youth Empowerment, she also believes that an integral key to healthy development and healthy societies lies in empowering and enhancing the inherent capacities of The Youth.
A Writer, Activist, and a Student and Health Researcher, Ahmeda employs all her hats to contribute to positive change in the many worlds she finds herself. As Writer and Activist, Ahmeda is an active online blogger, contributing to online discussions and commentaries on issues of social significance. She is also the author of a number of online articles and contributes regularly to e-zines and organizational newsletters. As a Researcher and a Student of Public Health, her principal interests are Child Sexual Abuse, Gender-based Violence, HIV/AIDS, Child Rights and Child Protection Issues. Her recent work with HIV/AIDS includes an evaluation of Thunder Bay District Health Services HIV/AIDS programs and the subsequent collaborative effort in the design of an alternate prevention strategy for injection drug users in Thunder Bay, Ontario. She has also conducted research into the HIV/AIDS prevention campaign in Accra, Ghana, especially in the context of the prevailing high incidence of girl-child sexual abuse. Ahmeda volunteers for CAP AIDS Toronto, The Gatehouse®, The Red Cross and with the University of Toronto HIV/AIDS day planning committee.
In addition to serving on the Board of Directors of Voices of the Voiceless, Ahmeda contributes on the Executive Committee of a number of Organizations and Civil Society groups, including the Lakehead University Public Health Association of which she is a founding member, the SUNSIH/REUSSI® as the Communications Director and the Domestic Violence Bill Coalition in Ghana.
Ahmeda received her Bachelors degree in Microbiology from McGill University in 2002 and is currently completing her masters in Public Health at Lakehead University in Ontario. Her Thesis is on Childhood Sexual Abuse as a Public Health Issue in Accra, Ghana. She spends her time between Accra, Ghana and Toronto, Canada where she champions the causes she believes in.
"...to live in these times without striving to change them is like watching, with serenity, the oncoming truck in your path.."- George Monbiot.
