We reject the top-down colonial ‘saviorist’ structure of many NGOs, instead opting to work in collaboration with local movements. We are building a network to support our communities, educate, and advocate through partnerships with other organizations, individuals, youth leaders, and survivor leaders.

At the coalition, we recognize how modern slavery functions as a manifestation of gender inequality, the climate crisis, unchecked capitalism and corporate hegemony, imperialism, and all other forms of marginalization and disenfranchisement.

Solidarity grounds our efforts as we organize alongside community-based networks – as part of the labor rights movement, women’s rights movement, climate change movement, survivor's rights movement, queer liberation movement, migrant justice movement, disability movement, and more – to address the root causes of exploitation and fight corporate-driven human rights violations.

We support international human rights (Universal Declaration of Human Rights) and UNCRC (United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child). We reject the criminalization of survivors and migrants, whose exploitation is often facilitated through politics that leave them intentionally marginalized.

Instead, we support a liberation-centered approach: combating the structural and institutional systems of violence that enable exploitation, while holding their corporate beneficiaries accountable

Our work centers around collaboration and ground-up solutions rooted in the experiences and knowledge of all our members. Our organizing work is done by coalition members and trusted partners, leaving no room for the use of AI. Climate change is a driving factor behind modern slavery. The environmental and labor impacts of AI — particularly on communities disproportionately impacted by environmental racism — makes it wrong to use in the movement against trafficking and forced labor.
