The focus of the forum, however, is to offer economic solutions to slavery, Dietz-Date said.
“It’s interesting how human trafficking finally has come into public awareness. Still, there are an estimated 27 million people worldwide who are in some sort of bondage,” Dietz-Date said. “We want people to know how they can safely make a difference for the victims of modern slavery.”
Fair trade is an economic approach that aims to help people in developing countries sell their products, she said. The focus is on exports from poor countries to developed nations, involving primarily handicrafts, coffee, chocolate, tea, cotton, fruit and flowers.
Those in slavery include people under age 18 involved in prostitution and people who have been delivered across international borders who then find out they must pay a large fee and can’t, Dietz-Date said.
