An Open Letter to Canadian Leadership on the National Strategy to Combat Human Trafficking
On June 19, 2024, Aura Freedom, in collaboration with other community partners working to end human trafficking, sent an Open Letter to Canadian leadership regarding the renewal of the Canada’s National Strategy to Combat Human Trafficking to ensure that efforts to prevent and eradicate human trafficking and support survivors do not disappear with the Strategy that is set to expire this year. Read the letter below.
A special thank you to our partners and co-authors of the Open Letter:
- Canadian Centre to End Human Trafficking
- Canadian Centre for Victims of Torture
- Carolyn Luscombe, Metis Nation of Ontario
- FCJ Refugee Centre
- Mary Ward Centre
- OneChild Network & Support Inc.
- The I Do! Project
An Update on this Advocacy:
In August 2024, we received official responses from Public Safety Canada and the Office of the Prime Minister, acknowledging our Open Letter and advising us on plans for upcoming community consultations. We are keeping an eye out for more updates to come.
