A forum for the publication of blogs on all aspects of law and policy relating to trafficking in human beings and modern slavery.
About this Project
The aim of this blog is to publish short articles of 600-900 words on new developments, contentious issues and new ideas regarding the protection of, and support for, trafficked people, as well as the prosecution and punishment of the perpetrators. We encourage submissions, in English only please, from anywhere in the world. We aim to make this a forum that will be of value for lawyers, policy makers, academics and practitioners wherever you are working.
Submissions may be an end in themselves, or they may be part of a larger research project. They may be used as a means of exposing your work to a wider audience. We want our audience-reach to be international, so please bear this in mind when drafting your submissions. But, while your blog should be accessible to an international audience, your topic can be very specific and, indeed, country-related.
To submit a contribution please e-mail: j.muraszkiewicz@gmail.com and ryp@aber.ac.uk with the title “blog submission_your surname”
