From human trafficking to the effects of malnutrition and world hunger, the poignant images and personal stories in this book allow us to meet these people, whose resilience and spirit, though fragile, remains uncrushed. Many cling to the hope that their lives will change, and our hope is that this moving portrait will inspire others to find solutions... to be the change.
