Although India has made huge efforts in recent years to end modern slavery, the Global Slavery Index estimates that around eight million people in India were in some form of modern slavery in 2016. The British Safety Council asked three global experts how India can eradicate all forms of slavery.
Safety Management asked three experts on modern slavery for their views on how India can eradicate all forms of modern slavery. We interviewed:
• Elise Gordon, a research analyst at the Walk Free Foundation, a philanthropic organisation that campaigns to end modern slavery around the globe, and publishes the Global Slavery Index that seeks to measure the extent of modern slavery
• Terry FitzPatrick, communications and advocacy director at Free the Slaves, a non-governmental organisation that works to end all forms of slavery globally
• Dr. Lenin Raghuvanshi, founder and CEO of the People’s Vigilance Committee on Human Rights, a non-governmental organisation in India that fights for the rights of marginalised people in North Indian states.
