Using your voice so the voiceless can be heard

I have always enjoyed reading or watching stories of remarkable individuals, the ordinary to the extraordinary, the impossible to the possible because it inspires me. Stories that bring us optimism, hope and courage. Sometimes, seeing is believing and when a spark is ignited within us, we learn and grow within ourselves that our ability to respond is limitless.

Malala Yousafzai courageously stood up against the Taliban and campaigned for the right of education for women. A tireless fight that almost cost her life when the Taliban gunmen shot and seriously wounded her. 

At the age of 10, she courageously spoke out against the Taliban on TV and blogged on the BBC about her fears of war and her longing for school. Even death threats didn’t scare her. Devoting her life to fight for the right of education for all children, in 2013 with millions signing a petition, the Pakistan’s National Assembly guaranteed free education for all children aged 5-16 years. 

She was awarded the International Children’s Peace Prize and the youngest person to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. 

Our ability to respond is limitless. #LimitlessResponseAbility
