A reflection on key insights from multi-country research identifying indicators of forced labor across global commodity production.
This lessons-learned paper distills findings from extensive field studies on forced labor in sectors such as agriculture, fishing, and manufacturing. It examines methodological challenges, data-collection ethics, and how indicators manifest differently across contexts and commodities. The report highlights practical takeaways for researchers and practitioners—such as the importance of worker-centered approaches, local partnerships, and triangulated evidence—to strengthen future monitoring and policy design aimed at eradicating forced labor in supply chains.
