What are student advocates?
Student advocates are volunteers who discuss modern slavery and human trafficking in schools, colleges, youth groups and Christian unions at universities.
They will respond to speaking requests and use their knowledge and resources provided by the Anti-Trafficking and Modern Slavery Unit to implement a grassroots movement. This in turn will raise the profile of the Army’s work supporting people who have been exploited.
At the moment we are recruiting advocates from everywhere, not just university students, but specifically people aged between 18 and 25 who are willing to be trained up, respond to speaking requests and generate their own opportunities for discussing the issues around modern slavery and human trafficking.
