More about Guest Speaker

I began counter trafficking work in 2001 when I was asked to initiate projects in response to the call of 800 Catholic women religious leaders, gathered in Rome that year, who recognised the global dimensions of modern day slavery. Now I am the executive officer of ACRATH – Australian Catholic Religious Against Trafficking in Humans. Our organisation works to raise awareness of human trafficking in the sex, construction, hospitality and agriculture industries. We have developed an online education resource accessed from our website acrath.org.au.
