The Graduate Certificate in Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking introduces students to the concepts of modern slavery and human trafficking, including key facets such as Australian and International legislative responses, risks in business and supply chains, and efforts made by global and local organisations to combat the phenomena. The program contextualises modern slavery and human trafficking globally, as well as examining ethics and decision-making.

Begin to unpack the ethics, laws, and politics surrounding slavery and human trafficking in modern society and business. Reflect on initiatives to prevent modern slavery and think about how your decisions and actions can contribute to change. 

Graduate Certificate in Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking

This subject analyses the legal response to modern slavery with a focus on Australian law. The subject considers the compliance obligations in practical terms and in terms of their effectiveness. It also considers the international legal response to modern slavery: the Universal Declaration of Human Rights 1948, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights 1976, the Rome Statute (17 July 1998), 1926 Slavery Convention and 1956 Supplementary Covenant on the Abolition of Slavery.

Law and Modern Slavery

This course examines the trafficking dimension of modern slavery. This is the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harbouring or receipt of persons, by means of threats or coercion, for the purpose of exploitation. Focal points of the course are ways to prevent and combat trafficking, protect and assist its victims, and promote cooperation.

Policing Human Trafficking

This subject outlines the context for reporting, acknowledging and managing modern slavery in and around the workplace as it relates to the production of services and goods and the ethical responsibility of organisations. The subject examines the UN mandate and the legislative framework within Australia. As identified through a range of public inquiries, modern slavery occurs within Australia. The realities of globalisation makes it inevitable that every country will also be exposed to the risk of modern slavery through the products it imports and the services it may utilise. It is necessary for modern policy-makers, businesses, and consumers to be aware of the risks and responsibilities. This course will examine strategies that may be adopted to mitigate these risks and act upon the responsibilities at an individual and organisational level.
