By placing young people at the heart of the research, World Vision’s CHAMP youth leaders and researchers not only gathered crucial data but also ignited a movement. It shows that young people are not just beneficiaries of change — they are its architects. Their voices, once unheard, are now a powerful force, demanding a future where every child has a right to the nutritious food they need to thrive.
