1. Issue Brief: Modern Slavery
|
|
|
A new research brief on modern slavery has just been published on the EMIA website and is available to its members. This research effort was spearheaded by the Extractive Industries Program, but the report covers several other industries, too. The paper was authored by our Research Director Sherin Gobran with a significant contribution from Michelle Berman.
The research brief provides a deep dive into sectoral and general legal and voluntary standards and principles related to modern slavery, reviews the situation in the major emerging markets, and ends with a few useful guidelines for investors.
