I think in the anti slavery sector we really need to be mindful that each survivor of trafficking has a distinct story to tell, shaped by their unique experiences and circumstances. It's crucial to acknowledge that no single survivor can fully encapsulate the diverse range of experiences within the survivor community. By recognising the individuality of each survivor, it honours their resilience, strength, and the complexities of their journey towards healing and recovery. Listening to a variety of survivor voices can provide a more comprehensive understanding of the issue of trafficking and ensure that support and advocacy efforts are inclusive and responsive to the diverse needs of survivors. One voice is never everyone’s voice.
