Survivor Alliance

Survivor Alliance is an international organisation that unites and empowers survivors of human trafficking and slavery around the world.

This September, our UK-based members will participate in running or walking the Robinhood Half Marathon in Nottingham, UK on September 26th. We are inviting our friends and allies around the world to join us! Walk or run your own half marathon (or further!) and raise awareness about the unique work that we do.

Our work is run by survivors, for survivors. There are currently over 350 survivors in our network, with 90 in the UK, over 100 in the US, 40 in India, 20 in Kenya and many more around the world.


There are two key areas of our work:

1. Community Building: We provide opportunities for our members to connect, learn from each other, and collaborate to make positive change in the world for all survivors.

2. Training Survivor Leaders: This year, we launched Survivors LEAD, a training program for survivors of human trafficking to become leaders in community building, peer-research, direct service, and policy/advocacy work.


Your donation will help us:
* Support training and education for people with lived experience of human trafficking and modern slavery

* Cover the cost of child care so that participants can attend our trainings

* Provide interpreters and translators to ensure members can join from all over the world

* Provide additional mental health and wellbeing support to our survivor leaders

* Close the digital divide and provide laptops to our program participants

In less than three years, Survivor Alliance has built a community of over 300 survivors of human trafficking around the world who are actively participating as anti-trafficking leaders. Our members are front-line workers, emerging scholars, NGO Directors, independent consultants, grassroots organisers, and policy advocates. Our members are also mothers, fathers, carers, people seeking asylum,  former foster youth,  formerly incarcerated youth, BIPOC, LGBTQ+,  people of all faiths and nationalities. What we have in common is a passion for anti-trafficking efforts to be led by and for survivors. And that is wo we are. Survivor Alliance is of, by, and for survivors of human trafficking.  A majority of our Board and Staff are survivors and everything we do places survivors at the center.

Survivor Alliance is celebrating our 3 year anniversary as an organization on April 23, 2021 and we are asking you to join us! We have a great line up of events for you to learn about how human trafficking intersects with other social justice issues such as ending racism, environmental degradation and migrant workers' rights. See the list of activities here: https://www.survivoralliance.org/sa-birthday-fundraiser 

Your financial support will contribute to our World Congress, an online conference that will bring 200 of our members togethe July.  Participants will develop leadership skills, expand social and professional networks, engage in wellbeing workshops, and of course have some fun  through our Talent Show!

If we are lucky enough to blast through our fundraising goal, all remaining proceeds will go to increasing language access and digital access to our programs. This includes paying for translators and intepreters, purchasing laptops to rent out to our members, supporting mobile data costs, and making sure all our programs remain free to survivor leaders.  To learn more about us, please visit our website: https://www.survivoralliance.org/
