About


I am a Liberian born, 22 years presently. I am  a youth development and participation activist for social change.

I ran out of here since the 80s to save my life, pass through Ivory coast, Ghana, saw Togo, Benin, Nigeria and other west african countries.

My long stay in Ghana as a refugee give me more strengh to strive further and a motivation to become a change maker for the better future of my nation, continent and for the good of all youth on one nation earth...!

I am presently the Co-Facilitator/Trainer for the Creating Local Connections West Africa (CLCWA)-Liberia Project and the Coordinator for my organization’s ICT Programs, The African Child Peace Initiative (ACPI)-Liberia


While in Ghana, I grew interest in working for humanity as a youth involving in child and youth developments. Though I had a course of dream studies as an IT-Professional, my decision to also involve into humanitarian affairs was hugely supported by my eldest brother whose tireless effort for humanity have contributed immensely to peace, conflict resolution and youth development activities both in Ghana and now back home.
With my profession as IT – Professional, I believe, I have something to contribute to the nation’s youth development.

As a growing desire, seen total calm to conflict and a process of operation sweeping wave as declare by the present government for national development, I have decided to return home July 2006 to contribute to my brother’s effort which have led to the construction of a Multi-purpose Youth Center in one war-affected community, Caldwell, use as a military base by one warlord, Prince Johnson.

Hello there,

A hardy welcome to the wiserearth family I see that you are in the business of peace building. Keep this always on your mind when it comes to the business of peace and that is this that the business of peace is every bit as tough as the business of war there is no difference and peace will exact an equal level of sacrifice as war including death. I say this not to bring you down but to point out that unlike war where its purpose revolves around killing people and breaking things peace on the other hand builds up that which has been broken and gives life to those holding on to their last breath of hope.

Your walk is a good one, keep it true,

Randy
