Excited to share this new report by @NYUMarron@UMassLowell@Freedom_Fund 🙌

While this @journalismfest discussion is targeted at journalists, a lot of relevant lessons for researchers too!
How do you convey the scale of the issue without losing focus on individuals?
How do you convey the depth of harm without sensationalising?

@UNUCPR @heavencrawley @AngharadSmith11@AnitaNISER@AMADPOC@INUREDHAITI 🎯 SDG 16.9 enshrines the right to documentation & a legal identity, acknowledged as being crucial to protect people against exploitation. Yet, no empirical data links the two. Phase Two of our project will explore this in more depth - stay tuned! 🤓
Thrilled to see this published! Grateful for the chance to work with the wonderful team at @UNUCPR on this global evidence review! 🙏 Immense thanks to @heavencrawley, @AngharadSmith11, @AnitaNISER, Linda Oucho at @AMADPOC & Louis Herns Marcelin at @INUREDHAITI 🧵
850 million people around the world lack official documentation. This global evidence review is the initial output of a @UNUCPR project with the @Freedom_Fund to explore the role that access to official documentation plays in perpetuating #modernslavery.

Extraordinary investigation by
@meghara@nytimes, shedding light on the spiralling debt and unnecessary sterilisation suffered by women in the sugar supply chain
Shame on @CocaCola who was warned about child labour and forced labour on these farms *5 yrs ago* and did nothing 👎
The Indian state of Maharashtra is a sugar-producing powerhouse. But a Times and @FullerProject investigation found that soft-drink makers help finance a brutal system of labor that exploits children and leads to the sterilization of working-age women. https://t.co/tA4H7rU0DV
In Nigeria 🇳🇬 89% of child domestic workers reported conditions that violate national laws, and 53% usually work 7 days a week without a rest day
