Modern slavery is one of the most serious human rights issues of our time, yet it remains hidden in many industries worldwide. Millions of people experience exploitation through forced labour, trafficking, debt bondage, and other forms of coercion. Raising awareness is the first step to recognising, preventing, and eliminating this issue. That is why our modern slavery training gives learners practical knowledge and clear strategies to take action.
