# SlaveryMap is back

In 2007, when we started Not For Sale, only about 15 percent of people had ever heard the words human trafficking. Most thought it happened somewhere else. Or at all. Slavery was invisible.

The goal was to shine a light on real cases and real stories of modern-day slavery: a pin on a map, even in your backyard, that could not be denied. Today, nearly everyone knows about human trafficking, in part because of the contribution SlaveryMap made.

Because people like you kept believing in this work, it returns with new categories we never tracked before, including one most people have never connected: ecocide-linked slavery, where destroying the land and enslaving the people are the same crime.

This is Open Source Activism. No single organization or government can end trafficking alone. So we’re opening this up. Soon, anyone will be able to add a case, and the community will verify it, case by case.
