Announcing the news in a video posted to Instagram, Eugenie revealed, "We're developing a podcast with Freedom United, and we will have a speaker series called Tech Tackles Trafficking." She continued, "Now is the time to talk about this, this is on everyone's mind. And if it isn't, we will make it on their mind."
In the Instagram video, which was posted to the official Anti-Slavery Collective account, Eugenie also revealed, "We do this for the person who can't scream and shout like we can … for the women, girls, men, children all over the world."
By cohosting a podcast, Eugenie hopes the charity's crucial work will reach an even wider audience and, hopefully, make a difference to an issue that still affects millions of people globally.
