Ashoka’s Changemakers United Online Summit 2020

“Together we are stronger and can show the power of systems changing solutions to address the covid-19 emergency.”

Ashoka European Changemakers Summit 2019

“There are people who can, who WE ALLOW TO CONTRIBUTE, who have the skills and access to be a changemaker, and SOME WHO DON’T and the gap between those who contribute and those who cannot is widening.

We call this the new inequality; where some have the will and power to contribute and others don’t. As a leader of our work across Europe, I understood that we need to fix this by building a EUROPE FOR ALL.”
