The Walk Free Foundation’s mission is to end modern slavery.

The Foundation has developed the world’s first all-encompassing global estimate of slavery with country by country data. The Global Slavery Index is updated regularly to provide an accessible resource to the anti-slavery community. It provides an analysis of government responses to unpack the local context of slavery systems. Walk Free’s campaigns concern different issue related to forced labour including one on forced labour in fishery on the Philippines.
