Jason Fernandes, India

learning disabled kids onlineJason Fernandes is a 15 year old boy from Mumbai, India, who grew up being a target of ridicule in his school. He was thought of as lazy by his teachers, that was until he was diagnosed as having dyslexia. Now Jason's life has been revolutionised by the Internet, and through his website, he is reaching out to other Indian children who have learning difficulties.

Comment from judges
This is an excellent example of how one young person can use the Internet to highlight an issue and provide valuable information to others. Jason believes that 'the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do!' Clearly this 15 year old is on track to do just that.
