This webinar will examine how digital technologies can improve modern slavery and human trafficking victim support. 

Victims of these crimes will have unique challenges, particularly on immigration concerns, a lack of familiarity with the UK, potential distrust of law enforcement, and there are solutions that can make a difference. With the UK set to re-tender for victim support and with a review as part of a new modern slavery strategy we will seek to see how tech can play a role.   

Join this webinar to look at where digital tools can (and can not) make a big difference for the welfare of victims, overcome language difficulties and provide as frictionless experience as possible as victims interact with policing, social services, charities and health services.  

Expect to hear from front line services on their needs, a case study on how digital tools can make a difference and from victims rights organisations to make sure the individual is central to delivering support services.
