Abstract

This report outlines a 12-month participatory research study into understanding how to ensure protection, support and positive outcomes for children and young people who have arrived in the UK and have experienced modern slavery or human trafficking. The report centres around the voices and expertise of unaccompanied young asylum seekers and refugees in the UK with experiences of child trafficking. It focuses on the outcomes of protection, participation, integration and empowerment and has the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child at its heart. The research was undertaken by the University of Bedfordshire, University of Sheffield Hallam and ECPAT UK. It was commissioned by the Modern Slavery Policy and Evidence Centre and funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council.
