'44 minutes'
Julia Lalla-Maharajh, founder of “End FGM Now” speaks at WEF panel on Saturday. (Photo courtesy of WEF)
In recent years, the WEF has offered YouTube users the chance to submit video essays directly to world leaders gathered at Davos. Subjects have included the fight against aging, world poverty and global warming.
This year, YouTube viewers voted to send Julia Lalla-Maharajh, a London-based advocacy adviser, to Davos to take part in a discussion on female genital mutilation. Her winning video, embedded below, contains a gut-wrenching description of FGM (including the amount of time that the procedure takes). But Lalla-Maharajh addresses the issue with intelligence and compassion. It’s easy to see why she was selected to speak at Davos.
Lalla-Maharajh addressed the conference earlier today and, in an interesting aside, she also encountered former president Bill Clinton in the halls of the WEF. She took the opportunity to tell Clinton about her cause. The interaction offers a good illustration of how work gets done at Davos.
Here’s the video that earned Lalla-Maharajh the right to speak at the WEF:
