The Slavery-Free Campus Blueprint

The UoN Modern Slavery Working Group continues to take action following its published and nationally recognised Blueprint to become a slavery-free campus.

The University launched a pioneering 38-step Blueprint to achieving a slavery-free campus in July 2021, at an event chaired by our Chancellor, Baroness Lola Young. This ambitious, transformational approach was the first of its kind globally and is aligned with the principles of the Modern Slavery Act (MSA) 2015. Founded on research led by the University’s Rights Lab, the Blueprint acts as a guide for all universities to take action towards becoming slavery-free.
