Reformers are individuals who seek to bring about positive change in society. They come from all walks of life, and their motivations vary widely. Some are driven by a desire to improve the lives of those less fortunate, while others may be motivated by a sense of justice or a desire for greater equality. Reformers often challenge existing systems and structures that they believe are unjust or inefficient, and they work to create new policies, laws, and practices that better serve the public interest and can be found in all areas of life—from politics to education to business—and their efforts have had an enormous impact on our world today.
