Slavery Map – tracking human trafficking worldwide

Posted: December 10, 2008 in Uncategorized

Two professors at USF created a program, SlaveryMap.org, where researchers, activists, and professionals can input areas of known slavery on a map. It’s a way that we can all become more aware of what’s happening around us, and maybe feel like we can actually do something about this problem of modern day slavery.

Tonight I’m going to volunteer with an organization that is doing slavery mapping in NYC. It’s a fascinating idea, and I’m looking forward to learning more about it. I’ll post more about it when I learn more. If you want to look at the website, it can be found at SlaveryMap.org.

    Hey everyone! I am the state director of Not For Sale in CT. Slavery Map is an incredible tool that is now being considered by the State Department! Having credible information is so important and many other things! Please let me know if you are interested in getting involved with NFS in CT or anywhere else!
