SELENE BIFFL

PLAIN INK

Selene always believed in the power of one. Due to this belief she changed many things.

She believed in this so much in fact that, since a very young age, she tried as hard as she could to create opportunities for peers and adults alike to get involved in a renewed, holistic and shared vision for change. Be it through Youth Action for Change – the organisation she founded at age 22, now active in 130 countries worldwide – her work with the UN in ten countries, striving to inspire and empower people to thrive, or Plain Ink – a humanitarian venture conceived after working with illiterate, destitute communities in Afghanistan – she has always pushed herself out of the conventional comfort zone to create ways to help people leverage their full potential, hone their skills and share their wisdom to tackle the challenges affecting the mankind at large.
