“Their perspectives, creativity, and lived experiences are things I cannot find elsewhere, and I think that is what makes this fellowship so rare.”
UNC Peacock Fellow Khadija Muhammad brings us into the field with the “Women at Work” program.
‘Football may last for a season, but the impact on the community lasts much longer.”
“These programs might be the difference between a young man choosing to speak to a friend about what is on his mind, rather than resorting to drugs to cope.”
“I first loved the soccer program because it included girls, who are often left out of organized sports in Kenya.”
“Preparedness begins long before an outbreak reaches a border, and with strong community networks in place, Kenya is better equipped to detect, respond, and save lives.”
