Hello

From Ngeri Azuewah
Education & Access Consultant

A quote I stand by:

"There is power in community. When you have community, you have it all."

Why do you do this work?

I believe in the power of education in transforming the world. You don't know what you don't know so I appreciate opportunities to create learning experiences for others to ensure that I do my part in sharing information. This work allows me to be a part of meaningful change that helps people be their best selves and form strong, knowledgeable communities.
