OUR VOICE WRITERS
Schools are microcosms of society, as should education be. As an educator, the human element and civic-ethical scaffolding should be embedded within curricula regardless of background.
Witnessing success and growth brings a unique sense of accomplishment. I have ergo strived towards my goal and accumulated four years of teaching experience. Designing a lesson plan is no easy feat, to retain the human element requires hours of preparation and observation of students. That remains true with voicing out, education is not monomodal, I believe that with a pen, insights emerge, as shall variety, as shall learning.

In the documentary Girl Rising, the narrator says, "Girls are not the problem, they're the problem‑solvers. You want to grow the world economy? Educate a girl."
I believe education is the key and the starting point to empower and help young people grow.
I am a student focusing on geopolitics and literature, but I am truly passionate about cinema and art in general.
I think youth empowerment also comes through education in the seventh art, which is why I want to share my knowledge and, if I can, inspire some young people to push their limits by showing them that anything is possible when you allow yourself to dream.

Hiya! I’m Christie, and I’m part of the “VOICE” writers team! A little fact about me is that I LOVE reading, and particularly adore romance novels! I also enjoy singing, dancing, writing, swimming, scouting and just living life one day at a time. I aim to study linguistics in university, so I’ve always had a penchant for using language to change the world. I hope I can use my voice here to explore and share about global topics, to inspire others and just to have fun along the way!

My name is Félix Totaro, I am 18 years old and I am French, of German and Italian heritage. I grew up in a strong intellectual and cultural environment, and my upbringing is based on respect and openness to the world. Since childhood, I have cultivated what I consider to be the most beautiful quality: my philanthropy.
I deeply love our humanity, and I strive to discover and understand the cultures of our world where, to borrow Voltaire’s words, I endeavor to “cultivate my garden” so that it becomes a cosmopolitan garden, a sanctuary of knowledge. My mission is to preserve this knowledge, which is so fragile, in order to ensure that future generations retain the memory of their roots. This is why I wish, on my own scale, to raise awareness among today’s actors so that no one becomes an orphan of their history.
Thus, I will strive to safeguard our shared humanity.

I am passionate about the world of finance, especially corporate finance and financial markets. I enjoy learning how businesses grow, make decisions, and interact with the global economy. My goal is to build a career in this field and turn my interest into a profession. I am motivated by challenges and always eager to deepen my knowledge. Besides finance, I also love sports, which play an important role in keeping me disciplined, focused, and balanced in my everyday life.

As Margaret Atwood says, "A word after a word after a word is power".
Hi! I’m Katherine, one of the members of the “VOICE” writers team! As a linguistic lover, I have always had a “thing” for writing and am more than excited to discover how far my words and my voice can take me to. My experiences in Model UNs, community projects and volunteer opportunities have also shaped my goal of breaking vicious cycles and bringing equality to every individual of the society. I hope that my writing can hence speak up for those who couldn’t voice out, to empower those who were suppressed and to bring a change to our community.

Malala Yousafzai once said: “Let us make our future now, and let us make our dreams tomorrow’s reality”.
This statement is admittedly simple, but coming from such a courageous advocate, it should inspire all of us, young and old alike. As a Voice Writer, I aim to amplify our voices and ideas in a world of constant change, where we, the youth, must be heard. I am a student passionate about geopolitics, politics, and international relations, and, by sharing my perspective on current issues that will shape our future, I hope to contribute to turning our dreams into reality - to making our future now.
