Advocating for Disability Rights in Gabon

Serge Okogo, SIS/MA '14

I love my job. What I do is close to my heart.

I had wanted to go to AU since my sophomore year at Gallaudet University because of its reputation as a leader in global education and its commitment to global social justice. I share those values. Since I’ve been back in Gabon, I’ve really enjoyed working on issues for people with disabilities. I’ve had to be creative when speaking to different stakeholders, and I’ve learned to do so through my education.

Learn more about Okogo's time at SIS and his career of advocacy and service.
