Meet Nedia

In Nedia’s own words.

My name is Nedia. My birthday is July 2, 2019. I live in the village of Vea, Ghana, where I attend school. I am also receiving tutoring support to build reading skills. I love coloring and playing ampe (a traditional Ghanaian clapping and jumping game).

The Context

Nedia’s world.

Nedia 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.
