Busola has developed a strong network with literacy experts in top education policy makers, publishers, businesses, academic institutions, and charity organisations in many countries. She speaks at local and international conferences and has published articles in peer-reviewed journals.
She also has a passion for supporting for people mourning different types of losses and regularly volunteers to help bereaved people.
