Fighting Against Modern Slavery with Matt Friedman


 
Human trafficking doesn’t always take the form we first imagine – it can be found at almost any level of an organization’s supply chain. In the Hidden Traffic podcast, host Gwen Hassan helps compliance professionals assess human trafficking risk and leverage their organization’s resources to root out this tragic problem. 
 

 
Matt Friedman joins Hidden Traffic as the first guest. He is a global expert on modern slavery and human trafficking, and the founder and CEO of The Mekong Club, where he regularly advises heads of governments and intelligence agencies. Matt is considered by captains of industry to be the leading catalyst of the anti-slavery movement in Asia’s business sector. He shares how The Mekong Club helps companies protect themselves and avoid risk.
 
Corporate social responsibility (CSR) came about as a form of self-regulation for organizations to contribute positively to their surrounding communities, but the intended overall objective has not yet been achieved, Matt says. Nowadays, organizations often use CSR as a smokescreen to hide questionable and sometimes unethical practices.
