Connecting Communities Through Laughter and Wellness
“Because when you love something, you will have the passion and the desire to share your experience with others. When people see the sparkle in your eyes, they will be moved by your passion. Doing what you love is the easiest way to connect with others.”
Gender Equality Through an Academic Lens
“It’s important to dismantle social stigma and gender prejudice on a societal level. This is how we can uplift each other. When we inspire each other, we also empower each other.”
Driving Change from Within
“I started off thinking that I could only do certain things because of what my parents told me. But if I don’t believe I can do something, I won’t be able to tell my peers that they can do it too. These stereotypes can only be broken if I believe in myself.”
Passionate Advocacy for Gender Equality
“Throughout history, women are still at times seen as weaker, and yet, we still found the courage to step up and voice our opinions. I think there are lots that we can do. I’m not just focusing on a local level, but how I can achieve more on an international level.”
A New Perspective on Gender Equality
“We need to fight for women’s rights. It’s not just affecting the current generation, but also the next. We need to speak up for all women and, in particular, address issues surrounding workplaces, education and ethnic minorities.”
Seizing the Moment for Advocacy and Change
“Most importantly, we need to believe in ourselves that we actually have the power to make a change. Do not underestimate your potential and seize every opportunity. Small steps can make a big difference.”
