Anti-Slavery International is committed to eliminating all forms of slavery and slavery like practices. Founded in 1839, we are also the world’s oldest international human rights organisation and base our work on the United Nations treaties against slavery. We work closely with partner organisations from around the world. Our experience at grassroots level informs and shapes our work to influence decision-makers and inspire change on a global level, particularly on bonded labour (also known as debt bondage), descent based slavery, forced labour, forced marriage, the worst forms of child labour, the exploitation of migrant workers in conditions amounting to slavery (particularly migrant domestic workers), and human trafficking. We have consultative status with the UN Economic and Social Council and observer status at the International Labour Organisation. We are a non-religious, non-political independent organisation.
