Summary: |
Free the Slaves promotes an holistic approach to eradicate slavery forever. It works to: (i) free slaves around the world by working with grassroots organizations where slavery flourishes, (ii) record and share their stories so people in power can see slavery and be inspired to work for freedom, (iii) enlist businesses to clean slavery out of their product chains and empower consumers to stop buying into slavery, (iv) work with governments to produce effective anti-slavery laws then hold them to their commitments, and (v) research what works and what doesn't so that we use resources strategically and effectively to end slavery. |

What was the experience of using OM? |
Many expectations have been met. It has provided consistency between country programmes, and high quality discussions within partners, between partners and between them and implementing organisations. It has ensured we ask the right questions (i.e. some were only recording changes in numbers of people in school etc., others were thinking in terms of systems ; what keeps children out of school). Overall, OM has promoted clear thinking. |
