Talk:Anti-Slavery International

Information
Anti-Slavery international, orginally called British and Foreign Anti Slavery Society founded in 1839, is the oldest international human rights organization. In the United Kingdom it is the only charitable to work exclusively against slavery and related abuses. Anti-slavery international work is divided among three teams: Each teams work enables them to work effectively towards achieving the goal of a slave free world.

Programme The Programme team works with partner organizations such as International Anti Human trafficking htm.and Free the Slaves to collect information on the issues central to the work. They deal with a lot of issues such as Bonded labour which affects millions of people today. People are tricked or forced into receiving little amounts of cash for various reasons then force into working long hours sometimes seven days a week, up to 365 days a year. They recieve only room and board and may never work enough to pay their loan off. The loans can be passed down from generation to gerne3ration. Early and forced to marriage is affecting woment who are married without choice and are forced to into lives of service to partners who physically assault them. Slavery by descent is where people are either born as a slave or viewed by society as being suited for slave labor. Human trafficking is one of the most prevalent it is happening in American Society. It involves the transport and or trade of of people from one area to another for the purpose of subjecting them to slavery like conditions. Human Trafficking Has been estimated at affecting 126 million chidren aroung the world. They work in harmful conditions or are forced to perform sexual acts for basic living necessitites.

Communication The communication offers education and promotion to the public awareness of slavery as it still exists in the world today. They campaign through press officers who produce action briefing and educational materials. They publish a sixteen page quarterly magazine the Reporter, to bring public awareness about slavery issues around the world. They lobby the United Nations and the European Union to change policies which would bring an dend to al forms of slavery nationwide. Anti Slavery international also contains a reference library and contains books, reports, and journals from the early days of the abolitionist movement through the present. Sunday March 25, 2007 marked 200 yrs.

Since Britain abolished the transatlantic slavery trade, today it is estimated that at least 12 million people are in slavery.

Fundraising, Finance and Adminstration The fundraising and finance and Administratin raise finances fron the public and charitable trusts.
