SuperShero: Amaka Enemo

Amaka Enemo inducted into theLove Superhero Hall of Gratitude in July 2016 for her dedication and passion to bring a woman-controlled HIV prevention method to Nigerian sex workers. Amaka is bold and brave. She is unstoppable and fearless. She demands PrEP for sex workers across Nigeria so they can be empowered to make decisions about the best HIV prevention method for themselves. Funding (or a lack thereof) has not held Amaka back. She's created surveys to help demonstrate the demand, then became an AVAC fellow. With this fellowship, she is trained 60 sex workers in 3 Nigerian counties. Passionate, articulate, bold. Thank you, Amaka for leading with your mind and heart!

About the Love Superhero Hall of Gratitude

“The plain fact is that the world does not need more successful people, but it does desperately need more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers, and lovers of every kind. It needs people who live well in their places. It needs people of moral courage willing to join the fight to make the world habitable and humane.” David OrrI deeply admire those who "live well in their places." The ordinary and the unsung who offer to the world the very best parts of themselves without expectation. This is a beautiful expression of love in her calm, persistent, generous manner - offering a ripple of change (a metamorphosis) to the world. Inductees to the Love Superhero Hall of Gratitude are caped in recognition of their contributions to a love-filled world.
