International Speaker

 

Leah den Bok is a powerful public speaker and award-winning photographer who has given countless presentations worldwide about her project, Humanizing The Homeless. She shares her impactful photographs and the stories of people experiencing homelessness in major cities worldwide, emphasizing the importance of humanizing and bringing attention to the issue. Leah's connection to the point, with her mother having been homeless as a child and rescued by Mother Teresa in Kolkata, highlights that homelessness can happen to anyone, and action is needed to help those in need.
