GLAMOUR's Activist of the Year at the 17th annual Women of the Year Awards, Georgia Harrison, just gave a powerful speech about consent and image-based sexual abuse.
Each year, the GLAMOUR Women of the Year Awards celebrate the most inspiring women across industries – from philanthropy to film – who help make our world a better place. Now in its 17th year, this year's ceremony, in partnership with Samsung, is no different. Winners from Lily Allen to Halle Bailey took to the stage in show-stopping outfits while delivering rousing acceptance speeches, but it was 28-year-old Georgia Harrison's speech that will go down in the WOTY history books.
