GENEVA, Switzerland, (ILO News) – New estimates of the number of people globally in forced labour and forced marriage will be released by the International Labour Organization (ILO), Walk Free and the International Organization for Migration (IOM) on Monday, 12 September 2022.

The Global Estimates of Modern Slavery: Forced Labour and Forced Marriage report provides an updated statistical picture of modern slavery in the world and assesses how this picture has changed since the last global estimates were published in 2017.

The report uses data gathered between 2017 and 2021 and draws on tens of thousands of responses, including face-to-face interviews from 68 nationally representative forced labour surveys and 75 forced marriage surveys. The new estimates are disaggregated by gender, age, sector, and the public and private economies.
