"The Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) is a leading alliance of companies, trade unions and NGOs that promotes respect for workers' rights around the globe. Our vision is a world where all workers are free from exploitation and discrimination, and enjoy conditions of freedom, security and equity." [1]
"DFID has provided unrestricted funding to ETI since our inception in 1998. In 2011, DFID agreed to provide us with further core funding of £1.3m between 2011-14." [2]
"We have played a key role in convening business and key government players to discuss the content of the draft Modern Slavery Bill. Read our position statement on modern slavery here." [1]
