2 Years of Yeshialem Learns About Fistula

By: Habiba Cooper Diallo

With Gillian Slinger, Fistula Training Initiative Project Manager and former Coordinator of the UNFPA Campaign to End Fistula

Today officially makes two years since I launched my self-published book, YESHIALEM LEARNS ABOUT FISTULA.  ​For the first time, see photos from the launch in London that happened on November 17th 2015. #2YearsOfYeshialem

Thanks to everyone who helped out- I don't want to mention names, as there were so many people who helped make the launch possible! Many thanks though to the SOAS Student Enterprise Office, my mom Afua, Gillian, Israa, Bilen, Dr. Elneil, Birkbeck University, Yared, Yasmin, Abiola (Afrokanist Magazine), Abukar, Fauzia, Hanan and everyone who volunteered.
