EMMANUEL ACHE
Emmanuel Ache believes that the overcrowded prisons in are not being tended to enough, and that the warden's have too much of a burden on the warden's. he's trying to make the prisons better in small ways (like transportation to and from courts, allowing inmates to see their families, and arranging legal assistance) to put less of a work load on the inmates and the wardens.

CYNTHIA MPATI
Cynthia Mpati has started a 3 year teaching program for unliscened teachers who have been teaching for 5 or more years.since their schools are so overcrowded, cynthis feels its important to get teachers educated and to be able to get more teachers out there and raise the pay for african teachers. so far, everything is going great with the project.

ZIENAB AL- MOMANI
Zienab is trying to liberate farm women in rural areas and let them have a voice with government decisions involving things they do and where aand how they work.

  1. I don't understand why they would want to make the prisoners more comfortable. They are murders and rapists (rapers?) and they are getting more benefits than some Americans.

  2. I think what Zienab is doing is great. This way the women will have more rights and choices about their work and the rest of their life.

  3. I know what Cynthia Mpati is really important in spreading education and in the same way stopping oppression and ignorance which is seen a lot in Africa with countless genocides.

  4. I think that Zienab Al-Momani is doing something great. Zienab is improving their way of life. Zienab is also helping them to get a voice in their communities so that they may be able to speak out against more injustices in the future.
