The book not only narrates inspiring accounts but also serves as a practical guide that speaks to the heart of social change.

As the voices within the book convey, the time for youth-led advocacy is now. Inioluwa, a 14-year-old contributor from Nigeria, delivers powerful advice to her peers: “Never underestimate the power of your voice. It can spark real change.”
