In a post on social media following the announcement, Adia shared her deep gratitude and vision for change: "I am so deeply honoured and grateful to have been awarded Vincentian Youth Ambassador at the ... Youth Excellence Awards 2024. What a distinct honour it is to represent my country regionally and globally, passionately advocating on issues affecting our islands and youth.
I truly believe in goodness and being the change you want to see. I still believe in making those ‘invisible’—visible and creating belonging for those who are excluded."
