The Freedom Fund has launched a project with the Human Trafficking Legal Center to examine the potential for strategic litigation to combat trafficking and modern-day slavery. It is hoped that this grant will lead to the creation of an international network of anti-trafficking litigators, as well as a list of potential cases to be brought against those who have engaged in this modern form of slavery.

Legal tools to fight slavery
Human Trafficking Legal Center seeks to increase litigation in the human trafficking arena, pushing transnational litigation through aggressive use of extraterritorial jurisdiction. The organisation also aims to continue their fundamental work of domestic U.S. litigation in the federal courts.
This grant will enable to achieve these goals by expanding the strategic litigation research base, and to build a global strategic litigation network.
