How can the government work alongside organisations in other sectors, including all groups and individuals in British society, to shape the national approach to modern slavery? This post provides a discussion of why this multifaceted strategy is the most effective way forward.


Modern Slavery is not a new threat facing the UK, but indeed an ancient, entangled and evolving issue that we have come to accept as a ‘given’ in today’s society. And yet in the same breath we are shocked by the number and forms of slavery revealed to be entrapped in British culture and supply chains. We are both regularly apathetic and yet indignant at the prevalence and impact of the issue. For an interesting contrast, according to the estimate from the Global Slavery Index (GSI)...

SJRC's Global Studies Internship is a unique programme that combines targeted studies and hands-on experience. Our goal is to equip future leaders with the skills, knowledge, and tools to implement effective and sustainable solutions to community strengthening, modern slavery, and child protection. SJRC is a faith-based research centre located in the middle of Scotland!


The GSI programme begins with a 3 or 6-month internship at our training centre in Scotland and an optional additional six months at one of Global Family's international programme locations. This unique hybrid programme combines classes and practical hands-on experience emphasising social justice, identification and intervention of human trafficking, and strengthening of local communities.

It is with great delight that I share Shobha and Santoshi’s graduation picture with you today. These sisters just completed their certificate in Early Childhood Development and will continue their studies towards earning a Bachelors degree. When we met these two very special girls, they had been abandoned by their father who spent most of his time away working highway construction in the Himalayas of North India.


Their mother had passed away. Conditions were harsh, and the girls were malnourished.




Happily, we were able to place Shobha and Santoshi into a loving family with a widow who had a great deal of ‘mothering' left in her… our very first ‘Global’ family! The result is beautiful and a clear reminder that every child deserves a family. Thank YOU for making this possible!
