Slave-Free Alliance Anti-Slavery Week Resources

A really simple way to mark Anti-Slavery Week is to share about it on social media or on other communications channels. We have created some basic graphics for you below. Use the hashtags #AntiSlaveryWeek and #ASW2026

You can find suitable options for use on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, in slide decks, on websites or in newsletters by downloading the whole set of social graphics at a variety of sizes in the below ZIP folder (7 MB):

These posters detail common signs of modern slavery, focusing on indicators of forced labour. The poster designs vary only by the imagery, the text content is the same in all cases.

The first link takes you to an editable template on Canva, suitable if you want to add in your organisation’s own contact details or helpline info, and your own logo (do not change any of the other text, colours or branding without seeking approval from Slave-Free Alliance first).

If you do not need to add your own helpline or contact details, nor need to add your own logo, instead use the finalised posters available in the zip folder, available at the second link.

Note on languages: Our parent charity Hope for Justice has many additional Spot the Signs poster designs in a variety of languages. Email info@slavefreealliance.org if you need multilingual resources and we will try to help.

Share these attention-grabbing and thought-provoking facts about modern slavery and labour exploitation during Anti-Slavery Week to engage your audience, workforce, partners and customers. We have created 3 for you below, along with suggested captions to accompany them. But you can feel free to adapt the captions to suit your own preferred messaging and style. These graphics could also be used on websites, newsletters or other channels as well as social media. Use these with the hashtags #AntiSlaveryWeek and #ASW2026

Suggested captions:

To accompany Social post 1: There are 16 million people trapped in forced labour in the private sector. Millions more are in state-imposed forced labour, domestic servitude, sex trafficking and other types of exploitation, totalling 49.6 million people in all forms of modern slavery. (Source: Global Estimates of Modern Slavery, ILO/Walk Free)

To accompany Social post 2: The CCLA Modern Slavery Global Benchmark assesses the modern slavery related disclosures of the largest globally listed companies. In the most recent 2025 research, a quarter of companies (27 out of 111) disclosed that they had found modern slavery in their operations or supply chains. This level of transparency should be recognised and encouraged as there is strong evidence that it leads to policy and practice improvements at the businesses concerned and across industry sectors.

To accompany Social post 3: £47.2 billion is generated each year by criminals from forced labour exploitation, excluding commercial sexual exploitation. Each individual victim of forced labour generates an average of £2,724 per year for those controlling them. (Source: International Labour Organization, ‘Profits and poverty: The economics of forced labour’, 2024)
