WHY SLAVERY?
Through our six compelling documentaries and ten informative short films, WHY SLAVERY? uncovers the stories of men, women and children trapped in modern slavery across all corners of the world. Whether it is the deeply flawed Kafala System, which binds migrant workers to their employers in the Middle East, or the prolific number of children being bought and sold in India, WHY SLAVERY? sheds light on the stories of people living in the shadows of enslavement. The aim of the WHY SLAVERY? campaign can be succinctly captured by the words of the 18th century Abolitionist William Wilberforce: “You may choose to look the other way but you can never say again that you did not know.” WHY SLAVERY? ensures that modern slavery is not only acknowledged but brought to the fore of the global political conversation.
