It is an unfortunate reality that, in the 21st century, people are still bought and sold as property. Even though the transatlantic slave trade was abolished more than 225 years ago, an international human trafficking market continues to exist. The ILO estimates that forced labor in the private economy generates $150 billion in illegal profits per year. Collaboration across sectors is required to effectively change the market incentives that perpetuate the sale of people.
Concordia is the leading public-private sector convener, with the Annual Summit one of the most important global gatherings of C-suite executives, heads of state, government officials, nonprofit leaders, and entrepreneurs.
