    Brisa De Angulo—a lawyer and psychologist—is a human rights activist who has dedicated her life to improving access to justice and healing for child survivors of sexual violence.

    As a survivor, Brisa uses her expertise to challenge the status quo and promote legislation safeguarding children. With 20 years of experience working with survivors of sexual violence against children (SVAC), and 23 years working with early childhood development, her insights have created a remarkably effective set of SVAC interventions.

    Her centre for SVAC survivors in Cochabamba, Bolivia implements these interventions on a daily basis, serving more than 500 children every year.

    In addition, Brisa is a public speaker, researcher, and author of many books. Her life story, her drive, and her outstanding accomplishments have garnered recognition from around the world.

    Brisa was nominated as a CNN and BBC hero and has won many international awards, including the World of Children Award.

    "I want to use my story to ensure that no other child has to suffer the atrocities that I suffered. I joined this movement because as survivors we are infinitely stronger when we unite. I hope to elevate the perspectives and experiences of survivors from around the world and to celebrate the tremendous diversity of the global community. Together we form a powerful community for healing and change, and we give one another the courage and vision to continue creating pathways of hope around the world. I dream of a world where all children grow up in loving, nurturing families, and communities"
