I am too delighted to get to know that you have been elected a vice president of the International Humanists Organization. Roslyn Mould a Ghanaian heroine, a graduate of linguistics and modern languages from University of Ghana, with credible experience in serving various positions in humanism and human rights activism. Former secretary and chair of the young humanists international African working group from 2014 to 2019. Then board member for Humanists International from 2019 to 2023. A member of the Humanists Association of Ghana since it was founded in 2012, she held several positions including president of the group from 2015 to 2019, she has been a coordinator for the West African Humanists Network, an advisory board member for the FoRB leadership network (UK). A board member for the LGBT+ rights Ghana, and President of Accra Atheist.
News of your victory has not only filled me with immense joy but to the joy of the entire community of humanists in Africa and the world. I take this chance to officially congratulate you because you deserved this and wishing you success in serving the organization. You must be highly pleased with this vacancy, as you have unquestionably worked so hard in promoting and defending humanism and human rights in various humanists and human rights organizations especially in Africa, West Africa and Ghana your home country, and finally at this position. Indeed, your commitment and devotion in humanism activism did assist you to be trusted for this position. As a global humasnists community our hope is that with this new opportunity, you will be in another avenue to serve the organization full of integrity, impartiality, transparency, accountability, competence, voluntarism and volunteerism so as to accomplish humanism mission and vision. The global humanists community is very sure that both you, the president and the entire leadership team right there at the office will stand on the shoulders of other previous giants to take the humanists agenda at the highest level especially in countering the new challenges facing humanism at this contemporary world. It is our hope that your leadership team will continue to be in frontline in campaigning on humanists issues, defend humanists and humanism in general, support the humanist movement around the world, promoting freedom of thought and consciousness, freedom of speech, assembly and freedom of expression, democracy, right to privacy, and human rights in general at the international level. It is our hope that you will continue to advocate for the separation of religion and state in the world. Fight for people’s right of choice to alternative belief apart from religion. Promote the application of science and rational reasoning as an alternative way of thinking than religion. Fighting against all kinds of discrimination be it gender based, race, tribe or regarding to faith, and all matters of inequalities on issues of belief.
I urge fellow humanists in Africa and other humanists worldwide to support this new leadership team of humanists International under president Andrew Copson, and Vice president Roslyn Mould. I, do assure the humanists community globally that they should expect greater achievements under this new leadership since the team has contained hard working personnel with full of commitment and leadership experiences. Therefore, on behalf of humanists and freethinkers in Tanzania, once again we say congratulations, we are happy to work with you, and Africa is supporting you to make sure that humanism is taken to the next level. For real Roslyn Mould, you are the perfect choice, and the passion to do something for humanism and for the humanists International organization has made you a shining star like the black stars of Ghana. Long live Humanists International.
