The Modern Slavery Intelligence Network (MSIN) is a pioneering non-profit collaboration in the UK food and agriculture sector.
The UK food supply chain is a high-risk sector for modern slavery and labour exploitation. Intelligence shared by MSIN members can generate new insights and protect those vulnerable to labour exploitation in the sector.
Estimates suggest there are 50 million people in modern slavery today, with 120,000 in the UK. Businesses need to be constantly vigilant to the risks of labour rights abuse and modern day slavery in their operations and supply chain. MSIN works with members and support agencies to share vital information and support to help combat labour right abuse in their business.
Join the MSIN Conference on 26th March bringing together experts in the field to discuss how we ‘disrupt’ modern day slavery and labour rights abuse in our businesses and supply chains. Delegates will be provided with thought provoking speeches and panel discussions. Academics, policy makers, retailers, stakeholders and industry experts will share their insights covering various conference themes:
1. Disruption of Modern Slavery in the food and farming industry
2. How do you find labour rights abusers in your business – what causes modern slavery and how to look for it
3. How can AI and tech help us to disrupt labour rights abuse
4. Systems Thinking – an integrated approach
5. Q&A, Workshop and opportunities to network
