Four years ago, Amadou Diallo arrived in Greece as a 16-year old, unaccompanied child from Guinea. Since arriving, he has fought hard for his education and the right to asylum. Finally, he was granted not only the right to asylum in Greece but with it, the path to a scholarship at the prestigious Instituts d'Etudes Politiques in Paris.

Upon graduation, Amadou is committed to fight against poverty and social exclusion, especially in Africa, because so many are forced to flee their homelands, as he was. Amadou is a leading member of PeaceJam Greece, working with other local young people to secure a future for all youth.
