Chair

Serving as an Ambassador for BelEve will allow me to inspire and empower girls, women and local communities, which is crucial for the growth, development and stimulation of the next generation of female leaders. The pressure and stresses placed upon young women to conform to unattainable beauty standards are incessant within our contemporary society, I aim to encourage a collective of inclusivity, open-mindedness and ultimately unity.

Annicka

I am extremely passionate about female empowerment because in society there are many norms/gender norms against women which shouldn’t be there, for example, men are the breadwinners and women should depend on them instead of being able and capable to work for themselves and be stable by themselves. Not only that but as generations develop we want these norms and the views on women to be able to be as equal to as men in order for everyone to feel equal. Being able to do the same job as a man shouldn’t be viewed as bad, it should be allowed because nothing is impossible. It is important to help other females out and work together.

Gabriela

I’m excited to support other young women, and being a part of change.  Women are still being treated unfairly around the world and its not right. Sometimes young women don’t have any help and it is important to empower them.

Danielle

I want to see us females taking over and helping each other grow because alot of young girl have amazing talents and dream but don’t know how to showcase it or just doesn’t have anyone to show them the way.

Jayanna

I’ve always had very strong opinions on female views; and how they’re treated in the workplace and through the stereotypical gender role. I’ve had a very strong viewpoint of FGM and have campaigned this through school due to it not having a lot of awareness in my opinion. Therefore, I am all for female empowerment and the ability to push young girls.

Zoe

I believe that women have the right to feel empowered and we deserve the same experiences and opportunities as men.

Tia

Female empowerment has always been a key part of my life growing up and especially now that I have matured. I believe that there is still a lack of strong female representation in the labour market and in other areas as well. I want to be the change I want to see and therefore, I want to contribute to greater female social representation in the media and the workplace.

Nikola

I have always been passionate about the empowerment of women. I believe we are just as capable as anyone else and can perform just as well as anyone else if not better. We are currently experiencing a “global gender revolution” in which women are not only finding their voices but actually using them in order to be treated the way they deserve to. There is a lot happening for women empowerment in today’s world however I don’t think it’s enough.

I also believe a lot of women often hold themselves back from advancement with self-imposed barriers such as a fear of failure, “you need to start a family”, and an inferiority complex where they believe men are stronger leaders and have better ideas.  I’m excited to touch more and more women and support them to take their power back. That is why i think BelEve is a perfect place to start my journey in empowering women.

Jennifer

As a young female who is trying to become a computer scientist, a heavily male dominated industry, I understand the importance to have the drive to break gender boundaries. Therefore, I am passionate about female empowerment because I believe it is important that all females know that their potential should never be restricted by society or stereotypes.

Rashana

As a female myself I’ve noticed that yes there are female opportunities but we still live in a male dominated world we’re many females tend not to have the confidence or the opportunity to speak out about a world that hasn’t reached full equality between males and females and I feel as though people in society should use opportunities and there platform to fight for what they believe in. Females are intelligent and creative and amazing people that add so much to this world but yet are mad to feel so insignificant sometimes and things have to change and everyone can make a impact on helping other females
