Professor Andrew MacLeod is a humanitarian lawyer, philanthropist and former UN aid worker. He is co-founder of Swiss and US charity Hear their Cries, and he is a visiting Professor at Kings College London. His previous humanitarian work included deployments to Rwanda and former Yugoslavia for the International Committee of the Red Cross, and multiple deployments for the UN including Chief of Operations of the UN’s Emergency Coordination Centre in Pakistan. Early on, Andrew served as an officer in the Australian Army including periods attached to the British Army. Andrew has received the Humanitarian Overseas Service Medal twice, the Australian Defence Medal, University of Tasmania Foundation distinguished Graduate Award, the 2013 Young Britons Foundation Global Leadership for Freedom Award and the 2008 Australian Davos Connection Leadership Award, amongst others.
This week, Andrew joins me live from his home in Finland to discuss the innate sense of conviction he feels to bring justice, equity and support to victims of sexual abuse and misconduct in impoverished and developing countries.
Special thanks to this week's co-host, past guest and Barrister admitted into the Supreme Court of NSW Australia, Mr Leigh Finch.
Listen with an open heart and an open mind,
Shan
