NEW BLOG FOR MY 21 DAYS IN LIBERIA

NEW BLOG FOR MY 21 DAYS IN LIBERIA
“With boots on the ground, engaging communities at the frontline, and raising awareness on fight against Ebola” .
Straight From The Heart with One Liberia Advocacy Radio  and other local communities NGOs like  OCI Farm Training Organization, Piso Community Outreach, (PCO), Citizens Organized for the Promotion of Transparency and Accountability (COPTA) and Messengers of Peace-Liberia (MOP), will be engaging and listening to citizens and communities members in remote districts about living with Ebola. This 21-Day project will entail preventive measures such as recording body temperature of contacts, washing of hands, distribution of hand sanitizers and education on hygiene and personal health care measures. 


We also intend to give people the opportunity to tell their stories, their pains, their fears, agonies, joys and expectations. We shall also bring to light the stories of other Ebola fighters, their frustrations, challenges and successes. We intend to also cover the effect of Ebola on various aspects of lives in the communities, especially new habits, changed cultures and economic failures. This is an adventure, which will involve community based groups and organizations breaking new grounds and reaching out to unheard voices of the Ebola battle.
