About

Joana was born in the city of Beira, Sofala province, on May 12, 2005, where she lived with her parents. She is humble and intelligent and likes to play with her friends and talk about the classes that they started and did not finish in 2020 due to CoVid19. In her free time, she reviews school subjects and helps her stepmother with the house duties.Joana’s mother died on April 18, 2018, victim of illness, while working as a domestic servant in the Maruti. Joana lives with her father who does little jobs of civil metalwork in the area where he lives. What the father earns is not enough to provide for the day - to - day living. She has 2 sisters and 2 brothers; 3 siblings attend primary school and 1 brother is not yet of school age. The house where she lives consists of 2 bedrooms and 1 living room, has an outside bathroom and no piped drinking water. Her preferred subject at school is Agriculture and Joana’s dream is to become a teacher. During 2020, due to COVID 19, the students had to study home, going weekly to the school to buy brochures and copies of tests. Most of the kids could not afford it.

Dear Helena, Ramona and Leonore,
Thank you very much for believing in me. Nonetheless, I probably have to stop studying for a while due to severe health problems. But know that your support means a lot to me.

Dear Sponsors, by greeting you and your family hoping that you are enjoying good health. Me, together with my family, we are fine. Last year, I passed class and was very happy. I found myself attending grade 9 mostly at home as we have been in quarantine, we only went to school to take textbooks and copies to read at home.
At the beginning of the year, we had classroom classes even though it was twice a week, then only at home, and now again at school.
it has been a little difficult, let's pray a lot for this situation to end and that everything returns to normal.
Thank you for the support I receive, I promise that I will apply myself a lot in my studies, as a way to pass class and fulfill my dreams as soon as possible. God bless you and your family.

Dear Sponsors,
I am a new beneficiary of the T.S.F project within ASEM. I attend grade 8 (2020) at Mateus Sansão Mutemba school.
I hope that you and your family are healthy and well. I and my family are fine. This year the classes started well, but in March we had to stop because of the COVID-19 pandemic, where we are in quarantine studying with brochures and online at home.
It was over 6 months that the schools were closed, in October only the classes with exams started. I and the other colleagues from grade 8 are still studying at home. I would like this pandemic to end forever so we can go back to school as before.
Dear Sponsors, thank you very much for the help you give me, hugs for the family.

    The experience that I had early in life was to score good marks in my class, whereby I got good grades which encouraged me to study hard in class. The difficult experience that occurred in my life was an accident on my way back home. I learnt that I should not play again in bad areas. In my life I am proud of myself. I was getting low marks in class but now I have managed to improve a lot. The most memorable and happiest thing in my life is to play football. It exercises my body regularly and hence strengthens my body system. My dream is to become a mechanical engineer. The best way to reach it is through studying hard in school, in physics, mathematics and chemistry. If I had power in my country, I would change the education system of the country so that it helps graduates to depend more on self-employment.

    I have experience planting vegetables because my parents do that. Also, we have a garden at our home. Therefore, that is experience I have had in life. Apart from that experience, I also had a difficult experience when I failed my geography exam. That enabled me to learn how to cooperate with other students. I was so proud of myself when I performed well in my national exam. The memorable and happiest moment in my life will be when I reach my dream of being pilot. I will be so happy. My biggest dream is to be a pilot. I will get there through studying hard in physics, geography, and mathematics. After reaching my dream, I will help my parents to modify their cultivation system and to become professional farmers. From there they can expand the area of cultivation into a large plantation. Once I get a chance to have the power to change my country, I will build many airports in each region and some districts. This will help in the flexibility of transportation in my country.

    Experiences in my life are when I failed my examination during primary education and also when my parents failed to pay food for me. My difficult experiences in my life are when my parents have insufficient enough money to pay for all my basic needs at school such as food and other school contributions. The thing that makes me feel so proud of myself is when I succeeded in joining O-level education. This makes me feel that I will, I must, I can do everything. The most memorable and happiest thing in my life will be to reach my dream of being a doctor general so as I can help other people in society. My future dream is to be a GOOD surgical doctor. After me reaching my dream, I will give back help to my society and family, but also to WEF. I need to work hard upon reaching my dream in my life. Once I get chance to have power of changing anything in country, I will improve the education system by converting science subjects from theory to practical. In most of our schools, they teach science subjects mostly theoretically. I will start from there because as we know education is the key to every success in our people.
