Our mission is to eliminate human trafficking and the harm it causes.

2022 ACRATH Annual Report

At ACRATH’s AGM on Tuesday 7th March 2023 the 2022 ACRATH Annual Report was delivered. The report contains the President’s Report, ACRATH’s strategic Directions, the Executive Officer’s Report, Key Deliverables for 2022 and the Treasurers report.

ACRATH President, Clare Condon sgs, opened her report using the words of Jesus “I have come that you may have life, life to the full” (Jn 10:10). Clare commented that fullness of life is desired by all of us but because of the exploitation they experience many in our world do not experience fullness of life. She thanked ACRATH’s members and staff for all they do to be a source of life for those who have suffered in any way from trafficking or modem slavery-like conditions. Clare applauded “ACRATH-ers who have found new ways of connecting and reaching out in service, education and advocacy” despite the lingering impact of Covid-19.

Forms of Human Trafficking

Human Trafficking is also known as modern slavery.

Victims often go willingly with their traffickers because they are being deceived about the nature and conditions of the work. Trafficking is a global phenomenon and nearly every country is a source, transit or destination (or combination of these three) for trafficked persons.
