Luna-Fiorella is a dedicated student fascinated by human behavior and the cultural factors that shape social and criminal contexts. Her idea was one of the top 11 submissions in the 2026 Learning to Be Heard competition.

In this winning submission, Luna-Fiorella explores the power of perspective.

Luna says: “I’m particularly interested in understanding human behaviour and the different perspectives that shape how people think and act, especially in social and criminal contexts. I find it really interesting to explore why people make the decisions they do, and how factors like environment, culture and experience influence that. This experience has helped me think more critically and express those ideas more confidently. In the future, I’d like to keep developing this interest and use it to better understand people and contribute to discussions around society.”
