Episode 33 - Rape Culture in Sierra Leone (From a Survivor's Lens)
In this episode, the duo thought it fit to bring on a survivor to speak on the approaches to combating the embedded rape culture in Sierra Leone. Our special guest has served Sierra Leone as a Gender Advisor and she is recently an entrepreneur and author.
Eager to know who our guest is? You have to listen to the episode to find out and to learn more about her pragmatic approach and perspective to make Sierra Leone safer for women and girls :)
Interesting Fact: Despite Sierra Leone being historically predominantly Muslim, though very secular nowadays. Sierra Leone has only had one Muslim head of state (the late Ahmad Tejan Kabbah), all of our heads of states have been Christian.
