Jaz O'Hara is a United Nations and TedX speaker who rose to fame by founding The Worldwide Tribe, an organisation and online community that raises awareness about the refugee crisis and supports those caught up in it. The Worldwide Tribe began after a Facebook post that Jaz wrote about her first trip to the Calais Jungle in 2015, which went viral. Since then, Jaz has worked tirelessly in camps across Europe and the Middle East to tell the stories that otherwise go unheard. The Worldwide Tribe has run many projects on the ground, from installing wifi in camps in France and Greece, to organising a football tournament in Dunkirk, funding a fire truck in Calais to supporting a search and rescue in the Med. Jaz is dedicated to challenging the fear-based narrative of much of today's media and society and does so through film, talks and most recently The Worldwide Tribe's extremely popular podcast. If you are looking for ways that you and your company can make a difference to the world, then it's time to jam with Jaz.
