About this listen

In this episode, guest speaker Colleen Theron speaks to Noa on the issue of unpacking the issue of modern slavery. Modern forms of slavery, such as human trafficking and forced labour, undermine peoples’ fundamental dignity and liberty. Our goal in this episode is to understand how modern slavery manifests itself in today’s society and the stakeholders involved in perpetuating this cycle of enslavement. The episode also focuses on the private sector and the growing emphasis on Corporate Social Responsibility - especially considering the recent CSR Directive.

Colleen is a tri-qualified solicitor with over 25 years’ legal and commercial experience of working with businesses and NGOs across sectors at both a strategic and operational level. Colleen founded Ardea in 2010 (back then CLT-Envirolaw) with the vision to harness her niche legal expertise in order to help companies understand how to meet their legal obligations for sustainability and business and human rights and create progressive voluntary best practice standards. Tackling modern slavery in supply chains and communities is a key passion of hers.
