I’m highly interested in improving the health of Sierra Leone by bridging the health access gap that exists between the poor and the rich in our country. I strongly believe that through public health interventions and strong advocacy, the health condition of people can be improved drastically.
I am interested in improving the health delivery process time at clinics in Sierra Leone because as a whole you are often exposed to an increasing number of diseases while waiting to receive care. I want improve WAMM’s ability to be effective at addressing health issues and establishing their presence in other parts of Africa.
Improving the health of Sierra Leone is key because Sierra Leone as a country needs a better economy, human capital development and this cannot be achieved without good health. I’ve watched WAMM transform communities through sensitization and community dialogue which resulted in diverse community leaders immediately referring sick people to health centers instead of seeking local traditional non-medical treatments. I want WAMM to be the organisation to copy from and grow to implement continental projects.
I am passionate about diminishing the gap marginalized and underrepresented individual’s face when accessing health care in their communities. I want WAMM to exist as a catalyst in the cultivation of young leaders to strengthen existing efforts and directives set-forth by local Governments, NGOs, and private sector whose focus is improving the health, education and social welfare of West Africa.
My greatest desire is to become an international health activist to help improve the health sector in my country. With WAMM I have been leading health sensitizations, community surveys, health research and teaching students to learn science through medicine. I am also looking forward to growing WAMM to become one of the most effective health minded organization in West Africa.
WAMM is a certified 501.c.3 non-profit organization in the United States. Operations concerned with our activities in the United States are currently managed by our Board of Directors.
Having work extensively in the health sector especially in Infectious Diseases and overseeing the National HIV/AIDS Control Program at the the Ministry of Health and Sanitation; I strongly believe that I can contribute meaningfully to the Missions and Vision of WAMM. As a key player in the establishment of WAMM since 2010 and my interaction with volunteers, expatriate, NGOs and medical students has given me a great experience to help direct WAMM in the right path and to help strengthen the health capacities of Sierra Leone.
My extensive experience working as an Administrator in the Justice Department in UK; Founder of Hackman Smile and Co-Founder of HS-Deroy Fashion & IT Institute (a NVTI credited in Ghana), with such background, I strongly believe that I can bring in added value in the administration and organization of West African Medical Missions for a desired result.
As a Public Health minded nurse, I am eager to contribute my expertise, experience and medical fervor to West African Medical Missions. I have received extensive training and experience in Nursing and Health Care Delivery that I can contribute to West African Medical Missions to help strengthen the health capacities of Sierra Leone.
Gabriel is passionately curious about the epistemologies of global health. He seeks adventure at every turn and has a heart with a passion to serve those most in need. His dream is to see WAMM Shift the Paradigm of Global Health
