You want to make a certain topic or issue more visible within a community. The goal is to make people understand the importance of a certain issue and find support to address it.

Awareness raising is very powerful, because it educates people about topics which are new to them and encourages them to participate in bringing change.

Healthcare access is something we all need, especially during a pandemic. But there are places where this is limited due to lack of funds, lack of physicians, etc. Therefore, healthcare is only accessible to those who can afford it. We want to spread awareness about this issue because our goal is to reduce inequalities. We must realize that the privileged are served, but the poor are still waiting. As fellow citizens, we owe it to them to be their voice.
