Modern slavery and human trafficking can remain hidden behind everyday situations, making awareness an important part of safeguarding. Understanding the signs, forms and risks of exploitation can help people respond to concerns more appropriately and support those who may be vulnerable.

The Raising Awareness of Trafficking and Modern Slavery course provides a clear introduction to modern slavery, the law surrounding it and the different forms exploitation can take. You will explore forced labour, human trafficking, bonded labour, debt slavery and sex slavery, alongside contemporary forms of slavery in the UK.

The course also examines internal trafficking, county lines and the challenges involved in identifying victims. By exploring safeguarding approaches, you will develop a stronger understanding of how concerns can be identified and how victims can be supported appropriately.

Whether you work in safeguarding, education, healthcare, social care or another setting where awareness of exploitation matters, this course provides valuable knowledge to support your understanding of modern slavery and trafficking.
