Human trafficking is the fastest growing form of slavery today and is prohibited under international law, as well as under the criminal laws of the United Kingdom and other countries. Yet thousands of women, children and men are trafficked to the United Kingdom each year. Amnesty International, Anti-Slavery International, London-based feminist charity Eaves and Unicef UK have partnered with Panos Pictures to produce a thought-provoking exhibition of photographs highlighting the lives and landscapes of people trafficked into the UK. Here is a selection of photographs from the exhibition and the stories behind the images.
