Sierra Leone building on 20 years of peace 

Never forget! Those who forget their history are doomed to repeat it!

As a Young person from Sierra Leone I am encouraging us all to take a stand that will revolves our future for us

When you walk around the city, you’ll see people who are angry for reasons they can’t even explain” that’s deep. I wanna read his book “a long way gone”

I love this story 77% This is what me & my team here in Ghana West Africa are building in our various societies (Y'akyi) May the God's of Africa Lands (Continent) Bless us All.

Watching from Cameroon 🇨🇲 love what you are doing DW wish you came to southern Cameroon on day we have alot to say here 🙏

Listening to their stories is heartbreaking, I was born in Sierra Leone. I left in 1993 right before the war hit Freetown. I am very angry that these young people never got the support they deserve to heal after the war.

Praying for Serria Leon

77% & John Caulker, thank you. Graceland Sierra Leone (a Psychosocial Care Delivery Organization), still bumps into some Survivors of this War that still don't know, what really happened. The 11year War is over but the Trauma still lingers. People are still broken with deep wounds inside 💔. I connect with you all Ibrahim and you all. Inclusiveness at every level is necessary to share lessons of the war.

Fantacee you are indeed a strong woman.

Hearing all this took me back to 1992-2002.... my eyes saw the deepest side of hell 😭😭

This is very educative. All of us have our story from that war.

Thank you for this conversation, i will look for Mr Beah's book to gain more insight. Fantacee, you are a strong beautiful woman and you shall overcome the anxiety.

To Edith the Facilitator - Great job. Your interviewing is flawless and flowing - even as you yoyo from one person to another. You also held down the emotional rollercoaster that may have been bubbling inside of you. Keep it up 🙏🏻

It's really inspiring and we should learnt something from it I hope we see the change we want

What a beautiful debate Edith, thx for being there and talking to our people... As a Sierra Leonean residing in Germany over the past decade I was also a victim of Child soldier... Since living in Germany I have done a lots of Therapies but to be honest with you whenever movie like "Blood Diamond " showed on German Tv's makes me reflect back to the worse time of my life..

SAD TRUTH, the government does not CARE.😞😞

Great job thank you 💖

May God bless the presenter, representing DWAfrica... They all spoke well, but three stood out. The youngest, the eldest and fantasy. S/Leone has a unique problem. A country predominantly engulfed by a youthful population who are not engaged in something worthwhile. These youths of today were the kids/teens of the 11yrs bloody civil war whose formative years were taken from them by the war. They're left angry and traumatised by the system today. They are wounded lions and can get angry very easily, even at the smallest things. So as a nation, if the elements/factors that were the causes of the war are still presenting themselves today by sierra Leoneans, then it means we didn't learn anything from the war.

Enlightening 🔥 We have to do more and be the change we want to see!

It's really hard to forget about everything that happened. We should be able to talk about everything that happen during the war. That is the main reason some of us the young generation give a damn about war because we don't know the negative results

Very interesting debate

Good conversation

Good video 👌🏿

This top talk was GOOD but way too short. And do not dig deep to find a solution.

The mental health rehabilitation is an issue I really wanna help deal with. When I come back to my Salone.

I was social worker for ishmile Bear in approve school under CAW catholic program in collaboration with UNICEF in Freetown .l met once here Brooklyn, N K

Sometimes I hate listening to such story.... because it's reminds me a lot

Center for Memory and Reparations is an organisation in Sierra Leone that is Facilitating remembrance and collective narratives around the Sierra Leonean civil war using the TRC to map and construct mass graves across the country and also sensitize school going children in these communities, play war documentary and advice them not to take part in violence activities. Kudos to them👏🏾👏🏾

Can Fantacee not create a space for them to speak with other people who experience the same thing within their age bracket. Small groups of talking/sharing therapy. Masking things doesn't help, personally. Watching the world go mad in front of my eyes and trying to wake people out of 50shadesofgray fightingtalk drugs sexualisation is a madness in itself. I speak with my family member who went through this war. She is the epitomy of strength to me and I to she for other reasons. Good panel. Peace and Blissings. I shall reach home soon!

John fantace Mariama Mohamed Mr Bah well spoken thank you very much 💖 this is what we want to hear let this useless Government tribalistic politics didn't divide ➗ we are One for good... We are in this together we can

Sad reality of our lost generation in 🇸🇱

*MATAHARI*

Poor conversation culture needs to change.

Trace who funded the war!
