This is our mantra at Mission 44 and the reason we place youth voice at the heart of everything we do. Our strategy, partnerships, and campaigns are co-created with young people facing social injustice. We embolden young people, elevate their visibility, and amplify their voices so they’re heard by those in power.

“I care about gender equality, especially in STEM. It’s important to get more women into those fields and interested in STEM subjects. It’s something that we should encourage more.”
