MEET CHICHI
As a globally-minded advocate for gender equality, I want to introduce you to influential women and men and explore their views on empowering individuals to be the best version of themselves.
With insightful questions, I explore the strengths and vulnerabilities of my subjects, focusing on how these characteristics can help us address global challenges such as sustainable development and women empowerment.
I am committed to building stronger links between countries during this golden era of Canada/Chinese relations.
I interview newcomers and immigrants, drawing out their unique contributions to Canada and the world. A humanitarian at heart, I am also curious about how the Canadian values of diversity, inclusion and fairness are being exported to the rest of the world.
Through these interviews, I want to promote a dialogue about empowering individuals to live meaningful lives. I hope that The People Who Shape Us will challenge your assumptions and inspire you with messages of hope, love, resilience, and opportunity.
