Emily Kenway on The Truth About Modern Slavery

The prevention of modern slavery has become one of the defining business and human rights issues of the last 10 years, but is it being effectively addressed in reality?

In this episode of Voices, Emily Kenway talks to Neill Wilkins about her book, ‘The Truth About Modern Slavery’ which describes patterns of exploitation for workers and also challenges some of the assumptions and frames of reference we use to describe and prevent modern slavery. Kenway proposes that only by changing our frames of reference, can we effectively address labour exploitation.
