The conference “Equity in Evidence: fusing lived experience and community knowledge into research to end human trafficking” brought together 93 anti-trafficking experts from around the world. This group included people with lived experience of modern slavery, researchers, policymakers, donors and other professionals in the global movement to tackle modern slavery. The event aimed to address gaps in how current research is funded, designed, implemented and disseminated – often without the involvement of, or alignment with, the priorities of people with lived experience, slavery-affected communities and local research experts. This objective guided the discussions on topics such as aligning research agendas with the priorities of people most affected by slavery, survivor-led and child-centred approaches, global definitions and local realities of modern slavery, and using research to help people empower themselves.
