The AAA Recommendations were endorsed by government and business at the Nusa Dua Forum in August 2018. This is a significant milestone, being the first major policy document agreed between the private and public sector to tackle issues of modern slavery and related exploitation in the region.
It is a sign that increasingly leaders from around the Indo Pacific are listening and beginning to act. Now is the time to drive forward practical impact from the opportunities generated during the next crucial phase of implementation of the AAA.

- Valued that business and government each bring different perspectives and approaches, and can learn much from one another.
