are proud to present the stories of five young activists from around the
world who are creating change in their countries, through nonviolent means, and
doing it before they turn 30.
The Be the Change website introduces you to five Reebok Human Rights Awardees, individuals from around the world who have taken a stand in support of human rights in their countries. These upstanders have confronted diverse social issues and have used different mechanisms to promote change in their countries, but they all have a tremendous dedication to the cause of human rights.
