Committee of Experts on Slavery

The Committee of Experts on Slavery (CES) was a temporary committee of the League of Nations (LN), inaugurated in 1932. The CES was created after a three year long campaign, with the purpose of investigating the efficiency of the 1926 Slavery Convention.

The CES conducted a global investigation concerning slavery, slave trade and force labor. Its report lay the ground for the creation of the first permanent slavery commission of the LN, the Advisory Committee of Experts on Slavery.
