Global Slavery Index 2023

Context:

As per the recent publication of the Global Slavery Index 2023, on any given day in 2021, as many as 50 million people were living in modern slavery.

About Modern Slavery:

According to the index, “modern slavery” refers to situations of exploitation that a person cannot refuse or leave because of threats, violence, coercion, deception, or abuses of power.
Modern slavery is an umbrella term and includes a whole variety of abuses such as forced labour, forced marriage, debt bondage, sexual exploitation, human trafficking, slavery-like practices, forced or servile marriage, and the sale and exploitation of children.
Target 8.7 of the SDGs: The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations also resolve to end modern slavery.

About Global Slavery Index:

The index presents a global picture of modern slavery.
It is constructed by Walk Free, a human rights organisation and is based on data provided by the Global Estimates of Modern Slavery, which, in turn, is produced by International Labour Organization (ILO), Walk Free, and International Organization for Migration (IOM).
This is the fifth edition of the Global Slavery Index and is based on the 2022 estimates.
