“My advocacy is grounded in the conviction that healing and justice are inseparable. As a feminist activist and storyteller, I work to build spaces where individuals and communities can confront gender-based violence, reclaim their agency, and reimagine more equitable futures. I view storytelling not only as a strategic tool for social transformation, one that enables true telling, strengthens solidarity, and drives collective healing. My work focuses on gender justice, with an emphasis on community-led solutions that are inclusive, reflective, and sustainable. I am deeply committed to amplifying voices that are often marginalised, and to ensuring that advocacy remains rooted in empathy, accountability, and collaboration.”
