This opportunity allowed her to participate in a unique cultural exchange in engagement with students from all over Africa. She was enrolled in a unique curriculum that emphasized ethical thinking skills, leadership development, and political awareness all taught through a pan-African lens. She finds vital importance in the capability to dissect complex ideas now to prepare herself to create lasting, positive change later.
