Do you know how to raise awareness of Human Trafficking by using LexisNexis Academic?

Help raise awareness of human trafficking by joining mtvU's "Against Our Will" Challenge. Right now, there are millions of sex and labor slaves worldwide – and many of them are right here in America. But you have the power to make a difference and help stop this horrific human rights atrocity.

The challenge asks students to create innovative digital tools that raise awareness of and encourage action on modern day slavery in the U.S. Modern-day slavery, or human trafficking, includes both sex and labor slavery and has been reported in all 50 states in the past two years. The winning digital tool will win at $10,000 prize furnished by LexisNexis.

Visit the Against Our Will website for more information on the challenge and human trafficking. Also, see our guide on Common Legal Research Assignments to see how you can research human trafficking using LexisNexis Academic.
