Amplifying children’s voices in Asia to catalyse change

The Asia region is vast and extremely diverse. Also complex; especially in the widespread challenges children face. I’m grateful that my work contributes to catalysing systemic solutions to the same, with every story, photograph, video, publication and campaign.

The image in my header, taken in Nepal, deeply resonates with my work. The vibrant colors symbolise the diverse perspectives in children’s voices across the range of countries, the stunning landscapes, and the varying socio-political contexts. My role is to amplify these voices and anchor them towards empowerment.
