Victoria Nimmo is a promising female leader with long years of experience in peace building. She believes women in Liberia have slipped the helm of authority and its about time they keep the fight to be at the center stage in driving Liberia toward the needed change. Believing so and upon taking the top role of Executive Director, Victoria has led the ‘I Learn to Earn’ Project specifically training women and girls in reusable pad production and ensuring their job placement at a local pad-manufacturing company. She invested time in a new concept of blending peace building and entrepreneurship with the conviction that building peace shouldn’t remain abstract, but with concert engagements that are income-generating. Victoria awaits her Bachelor of Public Administration Degree later this year(2022) from the African Methodist Episcopal University in Monrovia. She has received certificates in Conflict Mediation and other leadership training organized by Impart Liberia and its partners.
