Communities flourish where there is justice.

Fifty Million People are held in slavery today.1

Slavery contorts itself into our 21st century framework through sex trafficking, child marriage, and forced labor, exploiting people living in extreme poverty. According to the latest Global Slavery Index, India has a staggering 11 million people in slavery, more than any other country in the world.

STORIES

Suresh (right), now a partner working with JVI, aided in freeing his family and 159 other people from bonded labor. His son (left) is the first generation in his family to grow up free from slavery. 

Fifth-generation bonded laborer enjoying sustained freedom

We first met Suresh in 2014, secretly, on a dusty road in Bihar, India where he had slipped away from his work as a bonded laborer in an agricultural facility to bravely share his story of abuse and oppression. Shortly thereafter, thanks to the vigilance of Justice Hub partners working closely with government officials, Suresh and 159 others were freed from multi-generational agricultural slavery.
