🇲🇼 "This is modern slavery. We want our people back."
#BBCAfricaEye investigates the trafficking of Malawian women to Oman - many of whom, enticed by offers of domestic work, find themselves trapped in servitude.

Listen to the courage, yet heartbreaking, stories of these women. Watch us as we try to help them get home. Thank you @BBCAfrica for shedding light to what many think is not possible.
It is not enough for the US alone to prohibit the importation of goods made using forced labor. There shouldn't be a market for forced labor-tainted goods anywhere in the world. We need a global movement towards #nosafeharbor for #forcedlabor.

The process repatriating victims of human trafficking has not received enough attention. Often the concept of repatriation is seen as the act of purchasing a flight ticket and obtaining the necessary travel documents. Subscribe to our newsletter in the bio link to find out more.
Modern slavery: a project of economies. Where people are commodities. Where businesses and employers have the right over workers, because they “paid” for them.

We have a migrant workers fund to remedy wrongdoings and bring workers home with dignity. At the same time, we do not turn a blind eye into what is happening by collecting data. Support our work by helping a migrant worker return home.

International Migrants’ Day. A day to remember that migrants do not need someone else to speak on their behalf. They have a voice, we just need to listen. For the complete audio, follow us on Instagram @do.bold #MigrantsDay#domesticworkers
That is correct! We all need determination, a vision, action and most importantly, a community that you can all do these with! Working with @its_apenalty to stop modern slavery!
It can be difficult to believe that 1 person can make a difference. But change doesn’t happen instantly or through a solitary quest. Ignite change by amplifying the voices of @its_apenalty@WalkFree@STOPTHETRAFFIK@UnseenUK @shiva_fdn @WeAreDoBold
