Watch Rochelle Keyhan’s “Action” speech at the Thomson Reuters Trust Conference about Collective Liberty’s next project: The Forging Freedom hub.

Each year Thomson Reuters Foundation awards a corporation the Stop Slavery Award. 

The initiative recognises companies that have taken concrete steps to eradicate forced labour from their supply chains. The aim is to create a virtuous cycle, a positive paradigm to demonstrate that business can play a critical role in putting an end to modern-day slavery worldwide.

The Stop Slavery Award gives public recognition to corporations that are ‘best in class’ at demonstrating integrity, courage and innovation in cleaning their supply chains.

This year (2018) Thomson Reuters launched the inaugural International Stop Slavery Hero Award. The Hero Award recognises individuals who have had a significant impact in the fight to eradicate slavery – whether on the front lines, or at a global scale.

To learn more about the awards, they’ve created a brief preview video:
