SUMMARY:Turning the tide: Breaking the cycle of overfishing and labour abuses
DESCRIPTION:In this second event in the series exploring the nexus between modern slavery and environmental destruction\, we’ll put a spotlight on labour abuses in the fishing industry and its intersection with environmental degradation. \nWhile there have been many positive advancements in this area\, the vicious cycle of marine biodiversity degradation and human rights abuses persists. We ask: what could be done to unlock greater\, faster progress\, and increase better collaboration among stakeholders? What practical actions do we urgently need to better conserve marine populations worldwide and alleviate the plight of the many thousands of enslaved modern workers living in often brutal conditions? And what would advocating movement toward policies that address social and ecological problems jointly involve? \nTo further understand this connection\, a panel of experts will unpick the humanitarian and environmental ramifications of illegal\, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing\, propose practical solutions to foster radical\, sustainable progress and highlight the crucial role of collaborative philanthropy in the environmental and labour rights spaces to address growing complex\, global needs. \nSpeakers: \nJessica Sparks\, Rights Lab Associate Director (Ecosystems & the Environment) & Assistant Professor of Anti Slavery Ecosystems – Nottingham University \nRoisai Wongsuban\, Program Adviser – The Freedom Fund \nJacques-Chai Chomthongdi\, Policy & Campaigns Coordinator\, Oxfam Thailand/Thailand Coalition for Sustainable and Ethical Seafood \nAme Sagiv\, Director\, Forced Labour and Human Trafficking – Humanity United \nBradley Soule\, Director of Intelligence – OceanMind \nModerator:\nMaggie Gardner – Managing Director\, Development and Partnerships\, The Freedom Fund
