This is a report based on research conducted by Michael Rogerson (University of Sussex), Johanne Grosvold (University of Bath), and Kyle Alves (University of the West of England, Bristol) in partnership with London Universities Purchasing Consortium (LUPC) and Unseen UK. The project was funded through an open call for proposals for research on the links between modern slavery and climate change by the Modern Slavery and Human Rights Policy and Evidence Centre (Modern Slavery PEC), which in turn is funded and supported by the UK Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC).

The Modern Slavery PEC
The Modern Slavery and Human Rights Policy and Evidence Centre (the Modern Slavery PEC) was created by the investment of public funding to enhance understanding of modern slavery and transform the effectiveness of law and policies designed to address it. With high quality research it commissions at its heart, the Centre brings together academics, policymakers, businesses, civil society, survivors and the public on a scale not seen before in the UK to collaborate on solving this global challenge.
The Centre is a consortium of six academic organisations led by the Bingham Centre for the Rule of Law and is funded by the Art and Humanities Research Council on behalf of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI).
