Building a sustainable world necessitates justice across all dimensions: gender, social class, ability, neurodiversity, economy, and politics. While philanthropy has its merits, it hasn't effectively eradicated poverty and hunger. We must prioritize promoting justice to address these systemic issues. I firmly believe that justice is the antidote to poverty and societal challenges. Advocating for justice and equality is paramount in my professional and personal ethos. Remaining passive in the face of injustice only perpetuates the inequities in our society. It's time to take a stand, speak out, and actively advocate for justice. #JusticeIsTheAnswer#PrioritizeJustice#EqualityAndJusticeForAll#TakingAStandForJusticeAndEquality#AdvocatingForSocialJusticeAndInclusion
