Hi John,

We’re sorry for a mistake we made in our newsletter last month. We asked
you to vote on your favourite narrative for our new campaign, but a tech
issue prevented you from seeing the options. 🤦‍♀️ But you should have
received an email before that, which also gave you the chance to vote.
Sorry for any confusion!

People changing the World: Lilia Touil

[1]Lilia Touil

Can you tell us a little bit about yourself?

My name is Lilia Touil, I am 23 years old and I live in Paris. I’m a law
student specialising in international and European law. 

I campaign on the issues I feel most strongly about, like education,
extreme poverty, social justice, racism, and discrimination.

Through my studies, I’ve gained an understanding of why these problems
exist and how to combat them from a legal perspective. My work as a ONE
activist gives me practical and enriching experience through campaigning
online, raising awareness, and meeting decision-makers.

Have you ever felt discouraged from being an activist? How did you
persevere? 

We each get involved in activism for our own reasons. It’s normal to feel
unmotivated and powerless sometimes when we don’t see immediate results.
It’s important to remember why you decided to get involved and that every
action you take is a step towards something better.

I want to become an international lawyer, so I know that my experience can
only help me to achieve my goal and have greater impact.

What's one thing you've learned that might help someone new to activism?

I’ve been involved with ONE for a few years now. One thing that’s stayed
with me is the conviction that our voices count and that every action we
take is worthwhile.

We often hear that we're not going to change the world, but I can assure
you that my experience has changed me. It’s through helping others that
I’ve actually learned more about myself and the progress I’ve made.

Change starts at the individual level, and it’s the sum of voices and
actions that leads to the greatest change. So we need to trust our
intuition and dare to speak out in unjust situations.

 What is your favourite activism-inspired quote?

My favorite quote, and probably the one that underpins my commitment to
education, is Nelson Mandela's famous statement: “education is the most
powerful weapon you can use to change the world.”

For me, knowledge is power. Access to knowledge allows you to change the
course of life, starting with your own. Having access to education means
having the choice to lead the life you want. This change on an individual
level leads to wider success within communities and beyond.

As a 'factivist', what is one fact that you wish more people knew?

As an activist, it’s important to stay well-informed and this is one of
the important aspects of our work with ONE.

Each young person who joins is not necessarily an expert on the issues ONE
campaigns on, but we are trained to improve our knowledge on these issues.

One fact that springs to mind is that African countries are the most
affected by the consequences of global warming, but are responsible for
producing only 4% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. 

This injustice reinforces the need for countries most responsible for
causing climate change to take responsibility. We must support the most
climate-vulnerable countries to be able to respond to the climate crisis.
