Shaping Social Change via Social Media
Akuma joined brands to bring awareness to causes such as refugee recovery, recycling, sustainability in fashion, and women empowerment to her 150,000 Instagram followers. Her Instagram account, @katyaakuma, is just one of the ways she promotes the work to perpetuate permanent social change.
Using her platforms as a form of power and influence, she has stood behind causes as an activist and advocate. Her social media game is using her standing to raise awareness for other initiatives outside of her efforts as founder of The Council of Fashion for Social Change. Here are six times the influencer showed her support for great causes.
