Sarah Begum is such a passion driven, engaging speaker we were fortunate to have on our TEDx Accra stage. Her talk Dreams are made of Action was one of the best talks that was presented on the day. Her passion for environmental issues was clearly defined and her session was very educative. She the best I’ve ever worked with.
Daniel Kpabi, TEDx
Sarah came to the school to deliver an assembly based on her experiences journeying through the Amazon. Being an all-girls school the students could really connect to Sarah, and were inspired by the fact that someone they could relate to so closely could undertake such fantastic adventures. Your presentation really did engage with them and we all at Highbury Fields School wish you best for your future adventures!

Matthew Scott, Navada Studios, Belfast Media Festival
Sarah is engaging and as interested in her audience as she was interesting. The time she spent with students at lunch after the lecture was the most popular lunch of the lecture series in the last 2 years – and the effort she made to question and advise each of them is a testament to her passion for people. She left all the girls better informed and more inspired.
Ciara Morris, Godolphin and Latymer School

Sarah Beggave a wonderful talk, remarkably full of insight into the different people she has met on her adventures.

The team at Nari Diganta and audience most appreciated your work in that it brought home to women your ability to break free of stereotypical, sexual, cultural, religious bigotry to explore adventurously and achieve success as a woman. We would be pleased to have your presence again in order to empower and encourage women to do the same.
