Fatou's Journey

Fatou has achieved a lot in her twenty-eight years. She was born in Korhogo, in northern Côte d'Ivoire, and she has lived in three different cities since then. When she was six, her family moved to Bouaké, where she grew up and finished primary school.

In 2015, Fatou moved to Abidjan to study nursing. She has never regretted this decision, even though the first year was difficult. She graduated in 2019, and she started working at a public hospital immediately after.

Since starting her career, Fatou has helped hundreds of patients. She has also completed two additional training courses to improve her skills. Last year, she travelled to Ghana for a medical conference — it was her first trip outside Côte d'Ivoire, and she has wanted to travel more ever since.

Fatou has recently begun mentoring younger nursing students. She says, "I have learned so much since I started this job, and I want to pass that knowledge on." She hasn't decided exactly where her career will take her next, but she knows one thing: she has never stopped growing.

I was born in Bouaké, and I have lived here my whole life. In 2018, I finished secondary school and started studying accounting at university. I have always been interested in numbers, and I have learned so much since I started my studies. Last year, I did an internship at a local company, and it was one of the best experiences of my life so far. I have never regretted choosing this path, even though it hasn't always been easy. I have achieved a lot already, but I know my journey is only just beginning.
