Podcast discussing meaningful engagement of people with lived experience of modern slavery in international programmes and policies.

Published: 28th November 2022

Modern Slavery PEC research found that meaningful engagement of people with lived experience of modern slavery in policies and programmes makes them more effective in addressing them.

On this episode of the Modern Slavery PEC podcast we talk meaningful engagement of people with lived experience of modern slavery with two researchers led the research: Dr Wendy Asquith from the Centre for the Study of International Slavery at the University of Liverpool and the Modern Slavery PEC Research Fellow focusing on international development, and Dr Allen Kiconco, Visiting Research Fellow at the University of the Witwatersrand.

We’re talking about how the research came about, how meaningful engagement of people with lived experience improves the response to modern slavery, the crucial role of language in that process and the best practice in engaging people with lived experience.
