A group of talented teenagers from South Sudan proved that age is no limit when it comes to changing the world. Led by Adau Deng Kuol and James Madut, they created the Ramceil Botics robot, an invention designed to help remove plastic waste from rivers and waterways.

Their innovation earned them a spot at the First Global Challenge in Dubai, where they competed against 1,500 students from 191 countries. The team's mission was bigger than winning—it was about finding real solutions to one of the world's biggest environmental problems.

Dagger and Sheath. Sudanese. 18th to 19th Century.

1000 days of genocide. and I meet people all the time who have never heard of Sudan.

1000 days of genocide. and no one sees us.

1000 days of genocide. and I still have to argue with people that it’s not a civil war.

1000 days of genocide. and no one sees us.

1000 days of genocide. and hundreds of thousands and thousands of lives lost. massacres you can see from space. stock measures of body’s being used to count the dead from satellites. so many more in mass graves that have gone unseen. stock measurements that are just guesses and can’t account for all the generations lost. whole families obliterated.

1000 days of genocide. and still no one sees us.

1000 days of genocide. and millions and millions displaced. a whole country that has been rerouted and gutted and torn apart. whole cities and states completely wiped off the map. every home and market and school and hospital and museum destroyed. not a cup of shai left unturned.

1000 days of genocide. and still no one sees us.

1000 days of genocide. and billions looted and stolen. an entire planet that runs on our natural resources and food. entire countries that would not exist without profiting off of our backs.

1000 days of genocide. and still no one sees us.

1000 days of genocide. and still everyone refuses to see us.

1000 days of genocide.

1000 days.
