TSW Young Women's Edition S4/05 - Young Women - Empowering Your Voice

What does it mean to speak up, be heard, and sustain your voice in a world that often tries to silence young women?

In this episode of The She Word, Sasha sits down with three incredible young activists who have turned their voices into powerful tools for change. Journalist and Environment Editor at the European Correspondent, Belle de Jong, has been at the forefront of Malta’s My Voice, My Choice abortion rights campaign while championing social and environmental justice on issues from reproductive rights to the climate crisis.

Rachelle Bezzina is a writer, multidisciplinary artist, and co-founder of Young Progressive Beings, a youth-led movement for reproductive justice, who uses art and language as acts of resistance, care, and collective empowerment.

Joining them is Francesca Zammit, a multidisciplinary artist working across dance, film, poetry, performance, and community interventions, whose practice bridges art and activism to inspire social change and who also co-founded Young Progressive Beings. Together, they explore what drives young women to speak up, how activism intersects with journalism and art, and the unique challenges of fighting for reproductive rights in Malta.

They share stories of courage, moments of burnout, and the importance of setting boundaries while continuing to use their voices as a catalyst for change. From debating a woman’s right to her own body, to the role of protest as empowerment, to navigating activism in the digital age, this conversation is both deeply personal and profoundly political.
