Laila Mickelwait, Founder & CEO of Justice Defend Fund

Hi guys in this episode of The Uldouz Show I interviewed Laila Mickelwait who is the Founder and CEO of the Justice Defense Fund and the Founder of the global #Traffickinghub movement supported by millions around the world. She has been combating the injustice of sex trafficking for over a decade and is a leading expert in the field.

The #Traffickinghub movement that Laila continues to lead, is a non-religious, non-partisan, decentralized global effort to hold Pornhub, the 10th most visited website in the world, and the largest pornography website in the world, accountable for enabling and profiting from the sex trafficking and criminal sexual exploitation of countless victims. The Traffickinghub petition has been signed by over 2.2 million people from 192 countries. The effort is endorsed by over 300 organizations and the impact of the movement has been covered in thousands of media pieces globally.

Laila received her Master of Public Diplomacy degree from the Annenberg School of Communications and the Dornsife School of International Relations at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles in conjunction with the U.S. Department of State.

During her previous roles with the organization Exodus Cry, Laila has presented at conferences, universities, corporate events and has advocated for legislative reform at the United Nations, and to lawmakers in numerous countries, including Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, France, Hong Kong, Israel, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, South Korea, Spain, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States.

Laila previously founded New Reality International in 2007, an organization dedicated to serving those most vulnerable to trafficking, that holds special consultative status with the United Nations.

Her work has been featured in hundreds of news articles around the globe, in outlets such as The New York Times, The New York Post, BBC News, CNN, Bloomberg, Reuters, AP, CNBC, Fox News, The Washington Post, The Washington Examiner, The Guardian, and many others.

We discuss many topics regarding these issues and solutions in order to protect children and women. Please watch the whole episode so that you can learn about these issues.

I want to thank Laila for doing this episode with me, as well as all her hard work, she has helped me and many other women and children and will continue to help more victims. I really admire her strength and determination, she's very laser focused on these issues and i know she will be successful in anything she sets her mind into. So thank you Laila, you truly are an Angel!
