Today is International Domestic Workers’ Day. Domestic workers keep households everywhere afloat, yet they are chronically undervalued, underpaid, and underprotected by the law.

It's International Domestic Workers Day 🔊 To mark IDWD2026, we're launching our Domestic Work is Work campaign! We join migrant domestic workers and call on the UK Government to finally ratify @ilo.org Convention 189 and recognise that domestic work is real work! #internationaldomesticworkersday

Governments around the world are increasingly exploring and adopting laws that ban the import of goods made with forced labour.  Effective import controls and international cooperation across can make a dent in forced labour in global supply chains.

A birth certificate might seem like a simple document, but in the West African Sahel, people of slave descent face challenges accessing birth registration and IDs, restricting their access to education, healthcare and other essential services. Read our blog ➡️ www.antislavery.org/latest/how-b...

The UK Government has announced a trade deal with Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and United Arab Emirates. By removing an estimated £580m worth of tariffs from British exports, it will be easier for UK businesses to operate and trade in the Gulf region. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Yesterday at the Business and Trade Select Committee, Professor Laura Murphy called for import bans and mandatory human rights and environmental due diligence laws in the United Kingdom to tackle modern slavery, both long-standing asks of Anti-Slavery International. www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

We are extremely concerned about the update to the credibility section of the modern slavery statutory guidance published yesterday by the Home Office. ❓ But what is it?

Without forced labour import controls, the UK will continue to be a ‘dumping ground’ for goods made with forced labour. Anti-Slavery International has long campaigned for an import ban on goods made with forced labour in the UK.

Modern slavery is a ‘low risk, high reward’ crime in the UK. This has to change. We’re proud to be part of the consortium launching the #DecadeOfDignity report, a strategic roadmap to eradicate exploitation by 2036. No more looking the other way.

In June 2025, Anti-Slavery International, alongside partners at Corporate Justice Coalition & MPs Richard Burgon, & Ellie Chowns handed a petition with 145,000+ signatures into 10 Downing Street & the Department for Business and Trade (DBT).

This #EarthDay, we're highlighting a critical but often overlooked connection between climate change and modern slavery. Climate change threatens ecosystems, which in turn increases people's vulnerability to forced labour, forced marriage, and human trafficking.

The UK has committed to closing loopholes for low-value imports by 2029 – but in the meantime, the door is left open to risky imports.

The Coalition on Labor Justice for Migrants in the Gulf created a centralized, public record of migrant workers who have been killed in the war in the Middle East. We strive to remember, respect, & honor the lives of migrant workers killed in war. bit.ly/41u6BIi

Women’s History Month is a time to remember and honour women’s achievements throughout history. We'd also like to spotlight the challenges of many women migrant workers, who are often overlooked and who remain trapped in exploitative working conditions in systems like Kafala.

For many Uyghurs, daily life is still shaped by coercion, surveillance, and separation from loved ones. Refusing work is not an option. These abuses don’t stop just because we’ve looked away or we don’t see them.

Many of the everyday products we use and consume, like our phones, clothes, and even our easter eggs, could be linked to forced labour. This is unacceptable.

25 March marks the International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade. The Transatlantic Slave Trade involved the kidnapping and transportation of millions of African children, women, and men across the Atlantic Ocean, where they were sold into slavery.

The clothes we wear are tainted by Uyghur forced labour. The Uyghur Region accounts for roughly 20% of the world’s cotton, produced by Uyghurs and other Turkic and Muslim-majority peoples under state-imposed forced labour perpetrated by the Chinese Government.

What should Anti-Slavery International’s role be in a world where global trade, conflict, migration, digital connectivity & climate change, along with huge disparities of wealth between & within countries, are all part of perpetuating old & creating new forms of exploitation in modern slavery?

Uyghurs, and other Turkic and Muslim-majority peoples have been systematically subjected to forced labour by the Chinese Government, but their struggles don’t often make headlines.

We call for immediate action by home & destination country governments, employers & international institutions to safeguard the rights of migrant workers in all countries affected by the conflict. 1/2 bit.ly/4lmX52T @antislavery.org @equidem.bsky.social @ituc.bsky.social @idwfed.bsky.social

Migrant workers account for nearly half of all workers in the GCC, and are among the initial death toll as a result of the ongoing violence in the region. 🔗 Read our full statement of solidarity with migrant workers in the Middle East on our website: www.antislavery.org/latest/urgen...

Anti-Slavery International are deeply concerned about the UK Government’s earned settlement proposal & the recent announcement from the Home Secretary that would reduce refugees’ status from 5 years to 30 months, & the impact this may have on modern slavery survivors.

Some in Government insist that modern slavery claims are being used to get in the way of deportation attempts. This narrative misses that in fact, claims of experiencing modern slavery are met with huge barriers in immigration detention.
