A commitment to social justice
View(s):Christina Githmy, a Lankan based in Italy, is an example of a woman who has embraced the humanitarian cause with dedication. Here is her story highlighting her motivation, challenges and the positive impact she seeks through her actions.
Back in her motherland, Christina focuses on increasing awareness of the need for youth participation in politics and for citizens to be conscious of their surroundings.
Her approaches include developing her ‘Passionate Hand’ foundation in Sri Lanka as a commitment to social justice benefiting the community as a whole.
Her goal is to establish an academic institution registered under the Italian Government known as ‘Messiah’ in Sri Lanka. The institution will provide top quality education to children and bring about innovative solutions in the field of private education and child development.
After five years away, Christina returns to Sri Lanka and believes there is still much work to be done. Her appeal to society is a call to collective responsibility of each Lankan to take a step towards the country’s development, discouraging corruption, striving for common goals with self-assertion.
