It was also a powerful moment to hear from our new CEO, Helen Moulinos, on how we’re looking to transform the sector and push for systemic change.

Together, we explored vital questions:
💡Why has abolition failed to end slavery?
💡Why does slavery continue to thrive in the modern world?
💡 How can we take meaningful action to end slavery for good?
💡And what needs to change within the Modern Slavery Act to drive real, lasting progress?

The room was alive with passionate, powerful, and diverse voices made up of esteemed scholars, political activists, policy makers, and professionals. All in deep conversation about 1 urgent truth: the fight against modern slavery is far from over.

In our new blog, we reflect on where progress has been made, where harmful policies remain, and what must change for real transformation to happen. Read it here 👉 www.antislavery.org/latest/refle...

While there’s progress on tackling exploitation in supply chains, a hostile approach to migration and gaps in worker protections risk undermining Labour’s own mission of fairness.

The coming weeks are crucial. We must keep up the momentum and fight for #PeopleAndPlanet 🌎✊

#HumanRights #DueDiligence

We also support the reintroduction of a risk-based approach to HREDD which is crucial for addressing forced labour, which typically occurs further down the supply chain. We urge co-legislators to adopt these recommendations in the final text.

The proposal is now back to negotiations. We call on the Parliament to keep the scope as it is set out in CSDDD, so more companies are required to conduct HREDD. We support an EU-wide approach to civil liability to ensure victims of harm have access to justice.

The package would have significantly reduced workers' rights and protection offered by the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (#CSDDD), and watered down the Human Rights and Environmental Due Diligence (#HREDD) obligations within it.

One step to reforming the system and reducing the risks of trafficking, debt bondage and forced labour faced by these workers is for the Government to make employers pay recruitment costs. Sign our petition, because nobody should pay to work: www.antislavery.org/tell-the-gov...

Many workers get into debt because they are forced to pay thousands in recruitment costs, sometimes to unscrupulous gangs, putting them at risk of debt, trafficking, and forced labour.
