On the International Day for the Abolition of Slavery, hundreds of people from all over the world tuned in for our Freedom Rising Virtual Global Launch.

Unique and deeply transformative, Freedom Rising is a leadership and movement-building program that aims to equip and connect frontline women and survivor leaders in communities that are most affected by slavery.

This launch celebrated the rise of a new generation of frontline leaders as they come together to advance the global movement to end slavery.
