Ep. 6-Diverting the path of a "typical" African woman ft. Fatou Jammeh

from Daughters of Diaspora

Ramadan Kareem dear listeners! In this week's episode, we sat down with Fatou Jammeh; a fellow Gambian-Canadian woman who shares her diverse professional experiences and her passion for women's causes. Our conversation explores cultural identity, challenges of returning to the home country, women's opportunities and expectations, upbringing and identity as a Gambian woman. It delves into the fear of judgment and the impact of cultural expectations on reputation. The discussion highlights the shift in societal pressures and the importance of creating one's own trajectory. Additionally, Fatou shares with us the challenges and rewards of working in Africa and the need for sustainable solutions. Since the impact of humanitarian work and the role of education in development are explored in this episode, we would like to share and encourage you guys to donate generously to any of the links below.
