Meet Awinloya

In Awinloya’s own words.

Hello, My name is Awinloya. My birthday is October 07, 2017. I live in the village of Vea, Ghana, where I attend school.

Awinloya is academically intelligent. He loves to play football as well.

The Context

Awinloya’s world.

Awinloya lives in Vea, a farming village in Ghana’s Upper East Region — one of the poorest areas in West Africa. He attends school here, walking along unpaved roads through the savanna each morning.

In Vea, families depend on a single rainy season — just three months — to grow an entire year’s food. Only 9% of people in the district live within walking distance of clean water. The groundwater itself is contaminated with fluoride levels above WHO safety limits.
