Shana Abraham (@shana.abraham) is a 22-year old global health enthusiast, currently a senior at Duke University, and is a passionate advocate for womxn and girl’s rights. Growing up Indian-American, she found there was very limited support for womxn due to the heavy patriarchal influences in both the South Asian and American cultures. She recently published the book RISE: How Empowering Women Elevates Us All,  which was written for young womxn and their support networks to better uplift their communities through elevating womxn, and emphasize the idea that anyone can be a changemaker. Shana has just launched RISE Womxn (@risewomxn), a platform to empower young womxn through education on relevant issues, highlighting womxn changemakers, and providing actionable strategies and opportunities to elevate womxn around the world.
