How to research modern slavery better: partnerships between academics and NGOs
Description
Recording of the event held on 18 July 2022, organised by the Modern Slavery and Human Rights Policy and Evidence Centre on building equitable partnerships between academics and NGOs in modern slavery research. It's the first event of a new series of events 'How to research modern slavery better', bringing together people from the anti-slavery sector and beyond to talk and learn from each other on ways of doing research better.
We invited speakers from two projects funded by the Modern Slavery PEC to reflect on their experiences working in these kind of partnerships, and shared our own lessons we learned from our funded projects so far.
The speakers were: Dr Liz Such (lead researcher of our project assessing modern slavery prevention initiatives in the UK, Debbie Ariyo (Chief Executive of AFRUCA & Chair of the UK BME Anti-Slavery Network), Robin Brierley (Executive Director of the West Midlands Anti Slavery Network) and Lauren Saunders (Head of Policy & Research, Unseen).
