Meet Mercy and Martin

Mercy and Martin are currently interning at Our Moon as part of their second year.

Hi, I am Mercy. I am passionate about creating a world where human rights and gender equality are universally upheld. My curiosity about global challenges has inspired me to pursue international relations, where I aspire to drive impactful change through creating and reforming policies. I aim to drive meaningful change through the reduction of toxic masculinity and the promotion of healthier, positive masculinities, I am determined to end the prevalence of gender-based violence and build a society where everyone can live with dignity and respect.

I believe education and advocacy are powerful tools to challenge societal norms and empower individuals to embrace equality and justice I believe in the transformative power of education and advocacy to address societal inequalities, and I am committed to empowering marginalised groups to reach their full potential because I believe gender equality is essential for sustainable development and through international collaboration and policy reforms we will contribute to a future where justice and equality are not ideals but realities for all.

In my free time, I enjoy watching documentaries, reflecting on history, reading, and connecting with loved ones. I hope to inspire lasting change in communities worldwide.

Hi, I am Martin. I have always been fascinated by the ways innovative ideas can shape our world and create meaningful change. This curiosity has led me to explore the intersection of technology and its potential to address global challenges. My passion lies in Computer Science and its potential to address global challenges. I believe technology holds immense untapped potential, and when utilised effectively, it can provide transformative solutions—particularly in a country like Zambia, where technological advancements have yet to be fully integrated into key sectors such as education and healthcare.

In addition to my interest in technology, I have a strong passion for philosophy and enjoy exploring ideas that shape our understanding of the world. I aspire to use my knowledge of computer science to improve education and empower others to achieve their goals.

In my free time, I enjoy watching movies, reading books and novels, writing poetry and creative fiction, or reflecting on the quality of life.
