Human trafficking affects millions across the globe. National Human Trafficking Awareness Day is recognised each year on January 11.

The day marks the beginning of National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month, which takes place throughout January. It also aligns with International Anti-Human Trafficking Day.

Human trafficking is a global problem that affects millions of people. It's a multi-faceted crime that involves the exploitation and coercion of vulnerable individuals. Trafficked people are often forced to work, often doing hard labour or prostitution, for no reward. They may also have their identity and documents removed from them.

One way to show support for survivors and raise awareness is to wear bright blue on National Human Trafficking Awareness Day.
