Godfrey Okello, a visually impaired man, has been teaching English literature and music for over two decades. Despite his disability, Okello has been able to inspire and educate his students, showing that passion and determination can transcend any obstacle.
Another inspiring story featured in this episode is that of Vianny Djouffo, a former migrant from Cameroon who made the decision to change her life.

Lastly, we meet the co-founders of the JMA association, “je m’engage pour l’Afrique” (“I’m committed to Africa”). Ileana Santos and Amina Zakhnouf are passionate about making a positive impact on the African continent, and they have mobilized other young people to join them in their mission for change.
