IOM-Microsoft Collaboration Enables Release of Largest Public Dataset to Bolster Fight Against Human Trafficking

Anti-human trafficking apps were meant to save lives They re failing

WIRED Kelvin Lim began working to raise awareness about human trafficking in 2009. He used music and organised events at schools and universities across Malaysia, sometimes accompanied by his band. Then, one day in 2016, a member of the audience contacted him about a neighbour’s domestic worker she had seen with burns on her neck. Lim, a 50-year-old pastor and events producer, advised the woman to discreetly take a photograph of the woman’s injuries. He then sent it on to Tenaganita, a migrant rights group located in the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur, and they rescued her. The incident, like other tip-offs he had received following such events, sparked an idea. Lim teamed up with Tenaganita, which has sheltered and supported migrant workers in Malaysia for three decades, to develop an app the public could use to anonymously report instances of suspected trafficking such as forced domestic work, sexual exploitation or child labour.
