February 5, 2020: Today the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) to End Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking announced that it has put forward a Modern Slavery Act, which will require companies to report on the measures they are taking to prevent and reduce forced labour or child labour in their supply chains. The IJHR Clinic is the official external research group for the APPG and contributed significantly to this development. The IJHR Clinic looks forward to further collaboration with the APPG to strengthen the Modern Slavery Act’s effectiveness to ensure that the victims of modern slavery are heard.
