Why Tech Against Trafficking?
Human trafficking is a complex, thriving crime that impacts every country: There are an estimated 50 million people worldwide subjected to some form of modern slavery. Given the widespread nature of this crime and the complexity of tackling it, increased engagement from all stakeholders, including and especially the private sector, is vital.
Through their expertise, capacity for innovation, and global reach, technology companies can play a major role in preventing and disrupting human trafficking and in empowering survivors. Digital information and communication technologies offer opportunities for a step change in tackling this crime.

PEOPLE IN MODERN SLAVERY
Technological solutions to date include mobile apps that help identify victims of sex trafficking; satellite imagery that tracks down fishing vessels carrying victims of forced labor; and web scraping tools that aggregate child abuse images to help law enforcement track down children in need of help. But there are many more tools out there in need of support. Tech Against Trafficking hopes to accelerate the development, scale, and resulting impact of these tools.
