How many adults do you know personally who cannot read or write? What if I opened a window to show you a world where literacy, access to education and women's rights are more uncommon than you may think? On top of that, I could show you how NGOs are filling in the gaps to make a positive impact where the population needs it most. While media has played an essential role in bringing distant news stories right to our doorstep and allowing them to become more personal, there are still topics left unreported.
