It can be really intimidating to find a way to respond to the issue of human trafficking.
Here are a few ideas to get you started…
Locally
Attend training to raise your personal and professional understanding of this issue and how it impacts your community.
This can include hosting an event for your place of worship, work, community group or with your friends and family.
Take action on a global scale by holding businesses (local, national and international) responsible for their products, supply chains and more. Our ultimate goal is for all companies, around the world, to employ free (no force or enslavement) people of working age, working in safe conditions.
Start with places you shop regularly by looking on their websites for their “Modern Slavery Statement” or Transparency/Supply Chain Information
Think about your personal impact by finding out more about your slavery footprint at https://slaveryfootprint.org/ and consider making one (1) change in how you shop.
Share the change you make and how it’s going on our Facebook page - this might encourage others to take the leap!
Do your own research and share what you learn with others. Here’s a good place to start: https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2015/03/can-consumers-help-tackle-forced-labour/
