Mission Statement
Anti-Slavery International's mission is to work directly and indirectly with beneficiaries and stakeholders from a grassroots to an international level to eradicate slavery and its causes from the world.
About This Cause
As the oldest human rights organisation in the world, our work to end slavery is based on over 180 years of experience in successfully combating slavery. Since 1839, we have developed a strong reputation in advancing the political agenda on slavery through cutting-edge research, advocacy, campaigns and work with local communities. We were involved in ending various manifestations of slavery in many corners of the world, including slavery in British colonies, abuses in Belgian Congo, Indian and Chinese ‘coolie’ systems and slavery in Peruvian Amazon. We were involved in the development of all major laws against slavery, including the UN 1926 and 1956 Slavery Conventions and numerous other laws such as International Labour Organization’s conventions on forced and child labour and Council of Europe trafficking convention. All of these laws put slavery in a legal framework today. Being so uniquely placed to identify, we understand and tackle modern forms of slavery, we carried our expertise into the 21st century. Slavery is a complex and ever-changing problem which requires increasingly sophisticated solutions to tackle it.
