Human Trafficking, according to the International Labor Organization, is a 150 billion dollar-a-year global industry.  It is one of the worst forms of human rights violations.

Eleanor Roosevelt College is strongly committed to ensuring the human rights of all people. As a college that promotes international understanding and community development, ERC is challenging students to broaden their intellectual mind and socio-cultural curiosities beyond the common privileges of modern society. Eleanor Roosevelt College now offers a Human Trafficking Awareness Workshop that not only offers students a glimpse into the dark side of humanity but also opportunities for social change and justice.
