‘Be the Change you wish to see in the world.’ - Mahatma Gandhi
Seen someone facing discrimination because of their skin colour but been unable to do something about it?
Disliked the mounting garbage in front of your house but never known how to take it up with the local authorities?
Felt unsafe about your female family members travelling alone? Wished they had self-defence lessons?
Does this sound like you? – You always wanted to change something around you but never got the courage nor knew the process to bring about the change.
Great things never come from comfort zones. We usually stay silent and watch the world go through changes; people going through injustice, animals being ill-treated and the planet being destroyed. And there are times when we contemplate ‘Wouldn’t it be nice if I could ...?’
We have a lot of ideas but don’t act. Ideas that could make the lives of people better, the planet a better place, and that could bring light to the world. There are some people around us who rise to the challenge to do something about such issues.
Change Makers is an anthology of the stories of 11 powerful women Changemakers who decided to plant the seeds of light for the future. For those of us who think that one person can’t do anything to solve a problem, this book is about to illuminate your minds. You are about to be exposed to how the simplest tools on the internet started change ideas that later became movements. These movements were stirred by normal citizens; each of them has a powerful story, and each story has one clear message – We all have the power to bring about a change in the world.
