The Modern Slavery Core Outcome Set
I led on research for the Modern Slavery Core Outcome Set (MSCOS) project. It produce seven core outcomes for survivors of human trafficking to be measured and acknowledged in intervention development and evaluation. It involved three extensive literature reviews, exploratory workshops, secondary analysis of survivor interviews, interviews with marginalised survivor groups, and an international three stage E-Delphi consensus exercise. Here the academic paper. We adopted a participatory approach and I supervised, trained, and supported peer researchers with lived experience. The video opposite is a conference presentation on our process.
Lancet Series on Human Trafficking and Health
I am engagement Lead and co-editor of the forthcoming Lancet Series on Human Trafficking and Health, a groundbreaking collaboration that reimagines research through a public health and survivor-led lens. The series includes peer-reviewed papers and commentaries on diverse forms of trafficking, crisis settings, and health sector responses, while advancing global dialogue on empathy, disclosure, and decolonisation in anti-trafficking efforts. I also serve as senior or co-author on several contributions, and lead the series’ participatory co-authorship model, ensuring people with lived experience shape every stage of the process, from writing to publication. Opposite is an interview I gave to the BBC on human trafficking and health.
