INTERNATIONAL DAY FOR THE ABOLITION OF SLAVERY, 2nd DEC

INTERNATIONAL DAY FOR THE ABOLITION OF SLAVERY, 2nd DEC.
Slavery is no longer practiced worldwide, this means it is not an accepted practice.
The day is aimed at raising awareness of the atrocities of modern slavery, it is an opportunity to share perspectives in writing through poetry, opinion pieces, interviews, feature articles, short stories and other published material. Classrooms may review the history of slave trade, its evolution and the changes it has undergone through to modern times
Online, print and broadcast media promote the day through news, debates forums and talks about modern day slavery and why it is a serious human rights issue.
Political leaders including senators and those in the ministerial responsibility, also take the time to urge the public to work together in eradicating any form of slavery in modern society.
Educative and informative materials are distributed through all educational institutions and public areas on this day to draw attention of all stakeholders to curb out slavery.
On this day, a call is made to the public and all stakeholders-
“No one shall be held in slavery or servitude; slavery and slave trade shall be prohibited in all their forms”
Jumali and MDSCF join the rest of the world to commemorate with this day.
