Truckers Against Trafficking

I discovered this Facebook page from an Upworthy (on Facebook) video about Truckers Against Trafficking. Using social media to expose trafficking could be a pretty powerful way to inform people who may not be aware.

Ending Slavery: Strategies for Contemporary Global Abolition' is the world’s first massive open online course about contemporary slavery. The course is free. Lead by Kevin Bales, a leading expert in contemporary slavery, the course will cover the most cutting-edge research available.
As well as an opportunity to deepen your knowledge of different forms of slavery today, learn about ground-breaking research and examine strategies to end historical and contemporary slavery. You’ll be part of brainstorming a new guide to ending slavery, covering every level from the individual to the United Nations.
The course begins on the 17th October, 2016 and will run for four weeks, with certificates available. No prior knowledge is necessary, but you will have the opportunity to debate with others solutions for the future of the abolitionist movement, towards a world free from slavery.
