Modern Slavery and Human Rights Policy and Evidence Centre Information

The Modern Slavery and Human Rights Policy and Evidence Centre was created by the investment of £10 million of public funding as part of the Strategic Priorities Fund, delivered by UK Research and Innovation, to enhance the understanding of modern slavery and transform the effectiveness of laws and policies designed to overcome it. It's designed to provide independent, impartial and authoritative insight and analysis on modern slavery, based on high quality research, of real practical utility to policymakers, legislators, international organisations, businesses, civil society and the public. The multi-disciplinary Centre is led by the Bingham Centre for the Rule of Law and is a consortium of universities and Independent Research Organisations: the Rights Lab at Nottingham University, the Wilberforce Institute at Hull University, the Centre for the Study of International Slavery at the University of Liverpool, the Bonavero Institute on Human Rights at Oxford University and the Alan Turing Institute.
