I took a life-changing class offered between the Harvard Kennedy School of Government and the Harvard Chan School of Public Health on this topic, and now I cannot un-see what I've learned...human trafficking and forced labor is happening all over the globe, in many industries where we make daily purchases. From the migrants and asylum-seekers at our country's border with Mexico to the refugees I have been working with in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, there are so many communities who are being particularly targeted by traffickers today. By becoming more aware about some of the issues, and some of the positive efforts people have been working on to fight against modern slavery, we can better prepare ourselves to do something about this major challenge facing our world. I hope to spend the last 10-15 minutes of this session together discussing potential action steps.
