Love is a Dynamo – Part III

Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
nothing is going to get better. It’s not.

The Lorax by Dr. Seuss

Girls of Sierra Leone #5
Sierra Leone, 2011: Aminata Sheriff and her daughter are at a health centre in Freetown. Primary health care for children and pregnant women is now free, a critical first step in ensuring a better future for girls and women. Sierra Leone’s civil war ended over ten years ago, but progress, especially for girls and women, remains slow. High rates of maternal and child mortality, early marriage, limited access to education and sexual abuse all threaten girls’ health and wellbeing.

  1. I love this series. Pictures more powerful than words sometimes, touching the heart more deeply and bringing a catch to the breath, a tear to the eye, and s sense of wonderment! Thanks!
