An interactive and informative website allows you to track how many slaves it took to get you the things you use and eat every day. By visiting SlaveryFootprint.org, you can fill out a detailed online questionnaire and see which items contribute the most to the forced labor of millions of people around the globe. Today, slavery is used to produce more than diamonds. Learn more about how slavery affects you and what you can do to bring an end to it around the world. Here's to a day when everything we use is made in a truly free world.
