PeacePlayers 2023 Impact Report 5 18 (5) - Flipbook - Page 25
In PeacePlayers we
talked about gender
equality. And what I'm doing, I'm
eradicating the barrier of gender
for most people who also grow up
in households and communities
where they're taught that men
can and women can't. So doing
that. I am an example to the young
ones in my family as well as the
community. So they really look
up to me and they want to change
their lives around and
FOCUS ON
THEIR DREAMS
and make them come true.”

A lot of people tend to believe
that their background or
everything they've been through,
determines their future. I've always been
a person who wants to prove that that is
not true. We are chasing our career.
WE ARE CHASING
OUR DREAMS.
I haven't got my degree yet, but already
it has such an effect. Because I'm a
strong believer that your story has the
power to help someone else's story. So
if I'm constantly sharing my story and
I'm constantly pushing for my dream,
someone else is going to see that and
someone else is going to look up to me
and be like, I want to be like her.”
