Listen
Born undocumented in a rural village, entrepreneur Nasreen Sheikh was forced into work at a sweatshop in Kathmandu where she experienced the dark realities of modern slavery in fast fashion. Today, Nasreen leads social businesses and nonprofits dedicated to ending modern slavery, becoming an influential voice for the voiceless 50 million people still captured. In this session, she will shine a light on the hidden truths behind consumer culture and the human cost of our purchases.
