Slave making absorbs men, women and children into servile work and bondage. Cases of slavery have been found in Australia. This exhibition at the Kerry Packer Civic Gallery illustrates how Australia is exposed to modern slavery through our international supply chains and through slave-making in our own country. It includes posters and slide shows to illustrate how slavery operates, how it can penetrate Australian supply chains and what legal protections are available in Australia.

An information kiosk encourages visitors to explore some of the Treaties which operate in the region. These Treaties offer legal protection for domestic workers, child workers and people subject to forced labour.

Slavery Links seeks ways to minimise the harms of slavery and ways to control them. They strive to increase community awareness, increase community action and assist organisations to recognise their anti-slavery roles.

The exhibition by Slavery Links Australia builds on an address given at The Hawke Prime Ministerial Centre on 3 December 2014.
