Free the Slaves is an international non-governmental organization and lobby group, established to campaign against the modern practice of slavery around the world.[2] It was formed as the sister organization of Anti-Slavery International[3] but has since become a separate entity and has no relationship with it.[4] The organization was created as a result of research done by Kevin Bales in his book, Disposable People: New Slavery in the Global Economy.[citation needed]
