Rights Lab

Our partners at the University of Nottingham have published a number of reports which research and discuss modern Slavery.

Voices: Ideas for using survivor testimony in antislavery work

The full report can be found on the Rights Lab website

Excerpt from the report:

"Survivors of slavery and human trafficking are often marginalised or tokenised in the antislavery movement: expected to tell their trauma story of what happened to them or what they witnessed, rather than being asked for their expertise in learning what could prevent slavery or help someone in a similar situation. Antislavery organisations can provide opportunities for the inclusion of survivor voices – whether through direct engagement with survivor leaders or by using Voices."
