Meet Lola. 🧡
 
She’s 17, based in Tāmaki Makaurau, and an award-winning youth advocate, speaker and youth engagement advisor.

At this year’s World Vision Youth Conference, Lola shared a message every young person deserves to hear:
 
Your voice matters.
Your ideas matter.
And your actions can create real change.
 
Because young people aren’t just the leaders of tomorrow. They’re already leading now - in their schools, communities, whānau and the causes they care about.
 
Lola’s advice? Find something you care deeply about. Go hard. Trust yourself.
 
And believe in the power you already have to make a difference.
 
After this year’s World Vision 40 Hour Challenge, we’ve seen exactly that: young people across Aotearoa showing up, taking action, and proving that change starts when you believe your voice is worth using. 🧡

“You don’t have to feel ready to lead.”
 
Former All Blacks captain and Rugby World Cup winner Kieran Read shared some advice every young leader needs to hear: be yourself, stay grounded, ask questions, and don’t be afraid to make mistakes.
 
Because leadership isn’t about copying someone else or having it all figured out.
 
It’s about backing yourself, learning as you go, and giving the best of who you are - especially when there’s pressure.
 
After this year’s World Vision 40 Hour Challenge, we’ve seen young people across Aotearoa step up and lead in their own way.
 
And that’s exactly where change starts. 🧡

Stacey Waaka, Rugby and Sevens legend, shares her wisdom with us on what leadership looks like for her. 🧡
 
Winning Olympic golds and multiple World Cups, Stacey knows what it takes to show up for the people around her, on and off the field.
 
At this year’s World Vision Youth Conference, she brought her trademark warmth and honesty, sharing leadership advice that only comes from someone who has truly lived it. Stacey says leadership isn’t about being the loudest or most polished but about trust, connection, and showing up for your teammates every single day. Her message to rangatahi was simple: no matter who you are or where you come from, you have strengths, you have a place, and the journey is always worth it.
