John Tinuga and Furaha Noor are part of a dynamic and challenging youth leadership program known as the BoldLeaders Project, where they are asked to look within and reconnect with basic qualities of their being they may have become unfamiliar with so they can interact with the world of knowledge in a powerful, potent, creative, and imaginative way.
