Voicebox: Speak Up!
Never before have so many issues been championed at once. The environment; equal rights for ethnic minorities and LGBTQ+; an end to class discrimination and access to opportunities for the disabled. It's been over 100 years since women in the UK were first allowed to vote and the feminist fight for gender equality still continues. Refugees in desperate need of help and compassion are instead treated as criminals. Activism is integral to making these issues mainstream and bringing about much needed change. We at Voice want to shine a light on these movements, and specifically how you are campaigning for change. Big or small, global or personal, we can all make a difference, and we want to hear your stories. So whether you're at the forefront of an international movement, or you've just decided to cut down on plastic, share your story and help inspire others to make the world a brighter place!
