Bonded Labour Act Amendment

DonorIn this project we are focussing specifically on the release and rehabilitation of bonded labourers. We are part of a coalition of NGOs across India who are pursuing an acceleration in government-led rescue operations. As part of the coalition we will seek to persuade state and national governments to invest the necessary resources to eliminate bonded labour in India.

Our first priority is identifying the bonded labourers through conducting extensive field work. We then provide legal assistance to those in need and give them with rehabilitation support so that they do not fall back into debt bondage.

It is hoped that through both the advocacy work being conducted by us and others around the country and with the work we are conducting with the bonded labourers, that we will be able to implement better monitoring structures across areas we are working so that we can bring an end to the scourge of debt bondage.
