UK Government Inquiry into Forced Labour in Supply Chains 🚨 Yesterday, the UK government announced a new inquiry into Forced Labour in UK supply chains. Today, the Joint Committee on Human Rights discussed its implications. At STOP THE TRAFFIK, we're dedicated to exposing the hidden exploitation behind the products and services we buy right here in the UK. We’re working with businesses to identify and disrupt trafficking networks, preventing the proceeds of crime from entering legitimate supply chains. As this inquiry moves forward, we’ll continue to advocate for greater transparency and accountability to end modern slavery. If you’re a business committed to eliminating exploitation from your supply chain, now is the time to act. Reach out to us for data insights, intelligence, and analytics support to ensure compliance and combat labour exploitation. Let’s work together to create supply chains that are free from exploitation. Join us in the fight against modern slavery and #STOPTHETRAFFIK. A special thank you to our patron, Cherie Blair CBE (Cherie Booth K.C.), for her powerful words.

🚨 New Report Launch: Tackling Human Trafficking in Romania 🚨 Romania is a recognised trafficking hotspot, ranking 46th globally and 20th in Europe and Central Asia for modern slavery. Young women and girls are particularly vulnerable to exploitation. Between May 2023 and August 2024, STOP THE TRAFFIK launched Project Previnera Si Perturbera (PSP)—Prevent to Protect—a targeted initiative to uncover trafficking routes, prevent recruitment, and disrupt organised crime networks. What we achieved: ✅ Targeted digital outreach: We ran geo-targeted campaigns on Facebook and Instagram to deliver safety information directly to those most at risk. ✅ Collaboration in action: We gathered data from 10 frontline organisations analysing 134 anonymised cases, uncovering trends and vulnerabilities. ✅ Disrupting financial exploitation: We delivered a training to  18 financial institutions in Romania, equipping them with the tools to identify and disrupt trafficking operations. At STOP THE TRAFFIK, we know prevention requires collective action—from NGOs to financial institutions and technology platforms. 📊 Read the full report and learn how collaboration prevents exploitation: https://lnkd.in/e-WFxTP6 #EndTrafficking #ModernSlavery #PreventionInAction #Collaboration
