LEE VALLANCE

Lee Vallance is the author/editor/publisher of three digital books, all of them were made by the efforts of a group of fifteen passionate alumni working voluntarily online from thirteen different countries spanning the globe. Operating remotely, they are making an impact side-by-side a far-reaching, student-run, worldwide, non-governmental, not-for-profit organisation, which they were all members of at the time. Aware of the problems of the world, they try to convey them to people in all corners of it, without expecting any material compensation. Their work seeks to awaken awareness of these obstacles to progressive planet-wide progress by striving to draw attention to poverty, quality of education, wars, working conditions, climate change, and other global issues. They do this through the looking-glass of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, which the United Nations is leading the way to solve by 2030. The author is grateful for the support of the following contributors: Petra Cvetanovic, Chris Gassman, Edemos Hlonu, Anastasiia Isakii, Krisztina Kapuvari, Rei Kukuminato, Stephanie Kusemann, Gergely Lázár, Julian Legrand, Stuti Singh, Colina Tran, Valentina Tu, Onur Yaldız, and Oğuz Yılmazlar.
