Movement building: organizations around the world are doing exceptional work to eradicate slavery but, too often, these efforts are fragmented and underfunded. We aim to build a global community of activists, experts and donors by providing the platform, knowledge, and tools for them to connect and work together more effectively over a sustained period. We use our global leadership role, and the credibility conferred by the backing of our founders, to bring actors together and encourage greater collaboration and coordination.

Global initiatives: our sector initiatives coordinate actors and resources around a slavery-specific issue, including sectors, industries, or circumstances. This allows the freedom fund to tackle systemic issues like slavery in fishing or cross-border migration with new technological tools or legal initiatives. It facilitates a collaborative approach and greater combined impact. The freedom fund provides a channel through which those with funds, knowledge, or influence can impact international organizations, governments, media and the corporate sector to speed action.
