5th Annual CCHART Summer Symposium (2020)
The 2020 summer symposium convened participants from around the globe via the online WebEx platform.
With a decade remaining before the initial deadline of the SDG’s, we explored various aspects of the SDG’s and their implication in building resilience against Human Trafficking and Modern Slavery, and unpacked the ‘arbitraging’ of advantage that is currently taking place globally, as traffickers undermine efforts towards economic stabilization, geo-political transparency, and social equality. Each contributor brought a Covid 19 element to their thinking for action peri and post Covid to heighten immediate relevance for action.
The 2020 CCARHT symposium for tackling the multi-headed hydra of Human Trafficking processes, and the human rights devastation of Modern Slavery in the light of the Sustainable Development Goals. June 29th – 3rd July 2020.
Sustainable Development Goals 11, and 13 No Poverty, Sustainable Cities and Climate Action (with the perspective of Climate-Driven Migration in the mix).
SDGs 3, 4, and 5 and 6 Good Health and Well being, Quality Education and Gender Equality.
