On a list of nations with the worst records for using contemporary slavery, Kenya came in at number 12.<\/p>\n

According to the Global Slavery Index 2023, which was published this week after looking into several cases, this is the case.<\/p>\n

The report states, in part, “This includes people who are forced to work against their will, frequently in hazardous or exploitative conditions after being recruited on social media.”<\/p>\n

According to the report, social marginalization, unemployment, and poverty are some of the main causes of modern slavery in Kenya.<\/p>\n

According to the research, 360,000 Kenyans\u2014or 0.6% of the nation’s total population\u2014are believed to be living in modern slavery.<\/p>\n

The report states, in part, “This includes people who are forced to work against their will, frequently in hazardous or exploitative conditions after being recruited on social media.”<\/p>\n

According to the report, social marginalization, unemployment, and poverty are some of the main causes of modern slavery in Kenya.<\/p>\n

In addition, forced marriage, sexual exploitation, and financial bondage, all of which are considered to be types of modern slavery, are also widely practiced in Kenya. People who engage in this sort of abuse also experience violent abuse.<\/p>\n
