Summary

In this week's episode, prominent anti-trafficking campaigner Sr Liz Murphy addresses a problem that has often gone under the radar but continues to grip parts of the country: the devastation of human trafficking. Sr Liz outlines how Ireland's inability to meaningfully tackle the offence has seen it flagged on a global stage for its inadequate response, an offence that Sr Liz characterises as a "crime against humanity".
