His research is on the quantitative analysis of human rights with a particular focus on modern slavery, forced labour, and human trafficking. He is Head of the Rights Lab’s Prevalence Estimation Team, leading on or is part of a variety of prevalence estimation projects in the United States, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Southeast Asia, and he has completed a scoping review on prevalence estimation methods for the UK, funded by the UK Independent Anti-Slavery Commissioner.

We are delighted to be partnering once again with Hull Museums to offer attendees at our public lectures the chance to visit Wilberforce House Museum next door before joining us for the event.

Lectures will begin at 4 pm and will take place at our home in Oriel Chambers, 27 High Street, Hull, HU1 1NE. We are very grateful to Hull Museums for their generous support of the Wilberforce Institute’s public lecture programme, and we hope many of you will take the opportunity to explore their fascinating exhibitions beforehand.

Refreshments will be available from 3:45 pm, and we warmly invite you to stay afterwards for a glass of wine and the chance to chat with our speaker.

A limited number of in-person tickets are available. If you are unable to join us in Hull, you can still enjoy the lecture online – please select the appropriate ticket type when booking.
