Amanda is an award-winning feminist tech-entrepreneur, TV producer, freelance writer and author of At What Age Does My Body Belong To Me.
Amanda says: ‘The impact of sexual violence on women and girls goes far beyond what we can see on the surface. It affects how we move through the world, how much we walk, how freely we speak, and how safe we feel in our own bodies. Studies show that our fear shapes our daily behaviour. Whether we go out, how we show up in spaces, and even how much we trust others. We’ve been taught that existing as a woman is inherently dangerous. And often those claiming to protect us are either perpetrators themselves or protect those who are.’
