Liverpool community to rally against 'urgent human trafficking crisis'

Liverpool is set to rally together to “fight the urgent human trafficking crisis”.

Amidst the global refugee crisis “continuing to put millions of people at risk for human trafficking”, Liverpool residents are raising awareness for those caught in modern-day slavery worldwide and educating others about identifying potential victims. This weekend, on Saturday, October, 15, the city will join thousands of people around the world to participate in global anti-human trafficking A21’s 8th annual Walk for Freedom.

The event is an annual day of global awareness and local action in the fight against human trafficking, reaching hundreds of cities and towns across the world with the important message: that “modern-day slavery still exists, and it’s often hidden in our neighbourhoods in plain sight”.
