Cairo Eubanks was in college when a peer began stalking and harassing her online. She didn’t personally know the guy. After months of his attacks, she decided to speak up about it online, and much to her surprise other victims spoke out.
They all banded together and with a lot of work, they were able to put a stop to it. But it shouldn’t have taken over 30 women to stop one cyberstalker. That experience lead Cairo to do a lot more in the world. Cairo created Bringing The Globe (BTG), a virtual international student exchange program and a global village for students equipping them with the transferable skill sets and resources they need to thrive. BTG provides self-paced courses, live and virtual workshops, and online international conferences every year that leverage evidence-based and scientific research to help students find their purpose and passion.
Cairo’s work has extended into so many areas, that I had to invite her to the podcast to share her story with you. If you’re a parent who has a child looking for an opportunity to get involved in social activism, you will enjoy this conversation.
