The Power of Voice by Vidya Shah I EDGE 2019

Beginning the day with the Power of Voice, was our CEO, Vidya Shah. "Voice is an incredibly powerful tool in social change. Poets, authors, artists, even stand-up comedians have used it as a tool against injustice”, she said as she took the audience through the role that ‘voice’ has played in shaping identity, defying social stigmas and creating powerful movements.

Weaving together her favourite couplets, ghazals and poetry from legendary artists such as Ghulam Ali, Sahir Ludhianvi and Naseer Turabi, each verse symbolised a reaction to a moment in time, to an injustice and to a deep realisation of reality.
