Slavery is not just a relic of the past. Today, 50 million people are trapped in different forms of modern slavery, such as forced labour, sexual exploitation, human trafficking or domestic servitude. “Everywhere, let us join forces to detect, report and abolish contemporary forms of slavery in all its forms,” said UN Secretary-General António Guterres on Monday's Abolition of Slavery Day. https://lnkd.in/e79vwtKd 📷: The "Ark of Return" at UN Headquarters in New York honours the victims of slavery and highlights the legacy of the slave trade.

It is an absurd to consider XXI century is not a freed ambience. Can we live free from relative slavery. Nothing in the Universe is completely free. We are not free to fly. The Sun needs energy to shine. What is a heavy burden that caracterizes a Real bad slavery: the meek who don’t freed themselves because they didn’t develop in their full power because when they were children we underprivileged them below their deserving merit. Only God can have what is the força majore deciding luck. Ordinary men is not reputable capable and aware to judge. Not even judges. So let us pray for the best. For after all every human activity is a cultural manifestation. The all is a reflex of the People. Real trumps fake truth and truth. Let us get real: every single children is a ray of light. Allow the Au paire equivalents to stimulate and up with the sensing. Ade, Paul

Yes this is true. BUT : United Nations decided to let QATAR be the champion for 2025 2027 of the human rights !!!!!!! There is slavery in Qatar ... where are you UN ? Are you crazy ?? Or maybe fighting against slavery is just words for you or a way to make more money ... anyway this is a shame !! Qatar should be treated as what it is a slavery s country !!!!

Modern slavery is a stark reminder of the work that remains to ensure freedom, dignity, and justice for all. The UN's call to unite against these injustices is a powerful challenge for us to join forces and uphold humanity's shared values.

What is diabolical and horrible is, as usual, these people were never slaves. They were in an advanced civilization and enslaved groups of people. Historically calling these people as if they were property is lawless. They were neither born nor died as slaves. Kidnapped and At any moment they wanted to, they could walked, killed for freedom. Let's stop the pretentious word jargon and let's articulate ourselves like we're on the side of equality, equity, basic rights for all human beings. This morning, I have written to law directors , HR of cities as well as have reports that are going to be unleashed that deal with the terminology regarding the African diaspora. We don't have endless options of colors; we have a set range, therefore we have complexions. We are people that descend from people that come from advanced civilizations, both European, Asian, and African, that were formerly enslaved at one point or another. Let's quit the enslavement being denied for more appeasing and pro-Nazi terms as slavery. No one was born or died a slave. Whatever jargon you're using is offensive and is promoting a "whitewashing of history and appeasement". There is no slavery, or ethical cleansing; it's called "enslavement".

I am from Morocco and I am a victim of human trafficking.... We are given narcotic drugs and many methods are used without regard for our personal rights.

When the justice to be served as the right should to the real victim? To REAL VICTIM not fake or planted victim. Is there anything more on hidden agenda even the aid to assist by legal directly been denied yet did undergo so many layers of government's birocracy which those in government actually are REAL PERPETRATOR'S CIRCLE AND ALLIES SO DO PROXY HIDEOUS CRIMES AND HENIOUS TORTURED. WHY the systems are not practically works for direct to the real victim even after so many red flags? On clear surface yet still choose to take long way round which effect lots. From local spreads to other countries around, from land rights to domestic violences to victim/witness, from political crisis evolves to multi-dementional human rights catastrophe. Undeniable can we agreed that the bodies which role on law/jurisdictions related are the enabler for this escalations. No action proactively as per standard operation procedures been taken. To who or which bodies should a victim or the victims trust now? #JusticDelayedIsJusticeDenied All the irresponsible regime already been punished as per law should? If YES a victim already fairly treated now. NO is the answer perhaps? When? Until a victim die? Perpetrator's WIN. The Ugly Sad TRUTH.

Sex and prostitution is arguably the oldest profession. In high population poor countries it is a major industry for survival. For example Islamic nation of Pakistan, while many nations suffer relationship problems and internal breakdown in the name of sin.
