As we look back on 2025, we are grateful to all the podcasters, broadcasters, journalists and writers who were curious to learn about our grassroots-led movement, spoke to our leaders, provided a platform, and brought underrepresented voices and unrivalled expertise to a global audience.

Few people are fighting to solve this crisis as tenaciously and effectively as Angeline.”
