Diya Balaji, FreeSpeak's Founder and CEO, has personally experienced the glaring inaccessibility of public speaking activities for many young individuals as a debater.
Witnessing this disparity firsthand, she was inspired to take action and founded FreeSpeak. The main objective of FreeSpeak is to cultivate an inclusive environment that encourages and empowers youth to engage in healthy, real-world discussion.
By providing resources, mentorship, and opportunities, we aim to bridge the gap and enable young minds to recognize the immense power their voices hold. At FreeSpeak, we aspire to break down barriers, create equal opportunities, and foster a generation of confident and articulate individuals who can effectively express their ideas and opinions lifelong.
