THE ANTI-SLAVERY COLLECTIVE
Our mission is to keep Modern Slavery on the agenda, this includes the business agenda, the political agenda and the public agenda. The Anti-Slavery Collective works with others to combat forced labour in business supply chains. We connect and convene people, groups and ideas and use storytelling to build awareness and shift narratives on labour exploitation.
