"Grateful for the opportunity to participate in the two-day workshop on Protecting Your Charity Against Money Laundering/Financing of Terrorism abuse alongside fellow NPOs and key regulators, on behalf on Valor Mental Health Foundation.

"One of the most beneficial engagements in my 11-year humanitarian career. The 3-day sessions offered a rare opportunity for NPOs to discuss our shared interests and experiences around AML/CFT.They also served as a starting point for enabling NPOs in South Sudan to accurately identify risks, conduct assessments, and prioritize support for high-risk nonprofit operations in the country."

"The Leaders Talk-Africa was an incredibly powerful and insightful session. For fellow nonprofit colleagues in Cameroon, this is a must-watch. It offers practical guidance on how we can more effectively collaborate with the state and navigate challenges around money laundering, terrorist financing, and grey-listing."
