What inspires your work on ending childhood sexual violence?
Working with educational institutions and crisis-affected communities has shown me how proper safeguarding transforms lives. Every child deserves a safe environment to thrive. My experience with vulnerable youth populations drives my commitment to building stronger protection systems and empowering communities to prevent violence.
