Many of our postgraduate students go on to do research and engagement work that informs the policies and practices of government, NGOs, museums, education and the wider community in matters of historical and modern slavery.
Former student Dr Alicia Kidd was named as one of the Top 100 Corporate Influencers in Modern Slavery, and is now employed at the Wilberforce Institute as a Modern Slavery Lecturer and Researcher. Another former student, May Ikeora, sits on ETAHT’s Board and Committee in Nigeria, and has published a book presenting a case study of human trafficking from Nigeria to the UK. These are just two of many examples of former Wilberforce Institute students working to dismantle slavery and human trafficking around the world.
