Being a changemaker is not for the fainthearted—it takes boldness, resilience, empathy and a huge dose of commitment. In this series we pay homage to individuals at SMU who are dedicated to go beyond simply doing good, to advance the cause they believe in and effect a positive change in our world. From environmental issues, healthcare needs to helping the vulnerable, they are innovative problem-solvers who are determined to help communities overcome social issues and to ensure that no one gets left behind. They are the SMU Changemakers.
