I am fully invested in ensuring young people around the world have access to all the resources and opportunities they require for accomplishing any dream or desire they may have for themselves and the global community.

Raquel Wilson’s love for all things cultural, matched with her activist spirit make her a secret weapon in a time of creative idea exploration and a growing surge of international social consciousness. An artist, curator and social anthropologist, she harbors a passion for creating opportunities that give the underrepresented a chance at success. A champion for children everywhere, Raquel has finished writing her first book, Because I Went Parasailing, an inspirational story of achievement for young people and currently freelances as an independent consultant developing cross-cultural art and leadership programs that empower youth, particularly young women and girls. She is based in Dakar, Senegal.
