Equality Now respectfully submits this brief to the Office of the Special Rapporteur on contemporary forms of slavery, including its causes and consequences, in response to the call for input on the use of technology in facilitating and preventing contemporary forms of slavery to be presented to the 78th session of the UN General Assembly in September 2023.
We are writing to share evidence, gaps in law and challenges, and our recommendations regarding the use of technology in facilitating and preventing contemporary forms of slavery. Our submission highlights our experiences in legal and policy advocacy globally, with a specific focus on human trafficking for the purposes of sexual exploitation, commonly known as sex trafficking, with the primary victims being women.
