Modern slavery refers to situations where individuals are forced to work against their will, often under threat or coercion. This can include practices such as human trafficking, forced labor, and debt bondage. Victims may be exploited in various industries, including agriculture, construction, and domestic work, and they often lack basic rights and freedoms. Globally, millions of people are affected by modern slavery, making it a significant human rights issue. Organizations like the International Labour Organization (ILO) and United Nations (UN) work to combat this problem by raising awareness, promoting legal frameworks, and supporting victims in their recovery and reintegration into society.
