A Freedom Fighter, Creator, Social Activist and Change Maker, Evelien is determined to end sexual exploitation of children. She is the Co-founder and CEO of ‘Free a Girl’. An international organization dedicated to free underage girls from prostitution. Since 2008 Free a Girl has rescued almost 4700 children from sexual exploitation. And in 2017 Free a Girl founded the ‘School for Justice’ in India & Nepal to not only fight the impunity of offenders to change society, but also to give former victims a future, by training them to become legal prosecutors. So far she raised over 20M EUR to end sexual exploitation of children, and initiated multiple campaigns gaining support from human rights activists such as the Iraqi Nobel Prize laureate Nadia Murad. For her work Evelien has received several awards, such as the Mother Teresa Memorial Award for Social Justice.
I’m extremely grateful to share this conversation. A taboo topic, it’s extremely important & concerns us all. Many lessons to be learned and if we raise awareness together things can change!

Evelien shares with us:
- Why she is so passionate about Freedom
- Her sudden ‘awakening’ & why she resigned that same day from her corporate job
- Why if you shut one door another door always opens
- Why she turned to social activism to make the world better
- How she learned about child exploitation and was deeply touched
- Why she decided to be the change herself
- Why human sex trafficking & child exploitation is a multi bn industry and highly profitable
- Why child exploitation is a taboo although it exists in every country and concerns us all
- How the rescued girls find a new chance & purpose
- Why less than 1% of perpetrators get convicted
- How they train rescued girls to become prosecutors to end impunity
- Why everyone needs to speak up in case of abuse
- Her plans to file a lawsuit with the UN to raise awareness
- Her biggest lessons over the years & how her life changed
- Why good will always prevail & you should NEVER judge someone
- Why her most dangerous experience was also the most beautiful
