I'm a photographer based in Dakar, Senegal. I have filmed, produced and edited films in West and Central Africa for more than seven years. Most recently I have covered the Ebola outbreak from Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia. For two years I worked as a TV producer for Reuters TV in West and Central Africa, coordinating coverage for the region. I speak English (native) and French (fluent). You can see some of my latest video work here: www.riccishryock.com
Almost a quarter of a century after thousands of Chadians were allegedly imprisoned, killed and tortured during the rule of former president Hissène Habré, there is finally a chance for belated justice. Clement Abaifouta was only 23 when he was jailed and made to bury dead prisoners on an almost daily basis. Now 55, he has waited a long time to ask Habré: why? By Ricci Shryock and Aida Grovestins

Hundreds of Ebola survivors are marching in a Valentine's Day Parade in Liberia's capital on the day of romance to encourage 'love and acceptance' of the survivors, who have often been stigmatized in their communities and lost many loved ones to the deadly virus.
