PERSONAL IMPACT STORY
The Never- Ending Cycle of Learning
Though it felt like 2020 had dealt us all a hard blow, Beacon of Excellence, Amma Odamea Amoako decided to look beyond the circumstances and to give herself a chance at making an impact by using her social media presence. She had been learning new things and decided to make conscious efforts to engage intellectually on LinkedIn to share some of her thoughts and new ideas. Her new voice landed her spot on an international webinar as a panelist on TecTalk’s “The Black Women Matter” show with Kwamara Thompson a renowned Black Women Activist in the USA. (Read her full experience on her blog at theodamea.wordpress.com). Recently, Amma embraced another opportunity to become a Fellow at the Federation of International Gender and Human Rights (FIGHR). She was selected as one of 60 fellows selected out of over 450 young people who applied worldwide. The fellows are to work on a maternal healthcare policy to be implemented by the United Nations. Today, Amma stands with many other young Fellows from different parts of the world who are daring to make impact on the global scene!
