      <div class="legal-article__text">
        <p>Voice for Change is a video-first platform where individuals and organizations come together to create, share, and support content that promotes positive change aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).</p>
        <p>We believe in education before enforcement. Our guidelines are shared through onboarding tutorials, friendly reminders, help center resources, and email updates — so that every voice can rise responsibly.</p>
