Emily Kenway is a writer, researcher and former carer. After spending around a decade working on social justice campaigns and policy, her first book, ‘The Truth about Modern Slavery’ (Pluto Press, 2021), showed how exploitation has been politically reframed and why, and was described as a 'powerful treatise' by the Guardian. Her second book, 'Who Cares: the Hidden Crisis of Caregiving and How We Solve It' (Hachette, 2023) was a finalist for the Orwell Prize for Political Writing 2023 and has been widely acclaimed in the national press. She is currently completing a PhD at the University of Edinburgh, and sits on the boards of the charity National Ugly Mugs, which fights violence against sex workers and Common Wealth think tank which works on democratising ownership of the economy.
