Medina Lamunu, a resilient South Sudanese-born Australian citizen, arrived in Australia in 2006 after 12 years in Ugandan refugee camps. She envisions a brighter future for her native country, tackling water scarcity, education, healthcare, employment, and food security. As a mother, Medina’s passion is to create a brighter future for all children. Medina’s vision took shape after meeting John and Jean Leak founder of African Action International Australia, leading to the launch of African Action South Sudan (AASS) in Obbo, South Sudan when Medina’s then partner, and African Action International (AAI) Australia team visited. Medina’s dedication led her to become a Registered Nurse and Registered Midwife. With Medina’s then partner not embracing AASS/AAI’s values, breaching code of conduct, Medina now shines as sole Director, united with Jim Hewett and Marino Taban, living ‘Together We Can, Through Harmony.
