Meet Isabella

In Isabella’s own words.

Hello, my name is Isabella. My birthday is June 15, 2017. I live in the village of Vea, Ghana, where I attend school.

Isabella is the only girl of her single mother. She like mathematics and is the best mathematics students in class. She helps those of her collleagues who struggle in maths.

The Context

Isabella’s world.

Isabella lives in Vea, a farming village in Ghana’s Upper East Region — one of the poorest areas in West Africa. She 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.
