🚨 Modern slavery still taints the world’s coffee. Between 1996 and 2023, over 3,700 people were rescued from slave-like conditions on Brazil’s coffee plantations. In 2023 alone, the coffee industry was the #1 source of slave rescues, accounting for 11.4% of all cases nationwide. ☕ Brazil produces nearly 40% of the world’s coffee, exporting over $8 billion in coffee products in 2022 — yet behind this booming trade are farmworkers facing forced labor, unpaid wages, and abuse. Some plantations are so vast that one farm allegedly produces more coffee than all of Bolivia. No cup of coffee should come at the cost of human freedom. 🔗 Learn more and take action: coffeewatch.org/stop-slavery-tainted-coffee-at-the-border #CoffeeWatch #EndModernSlavery #FairTradeNow #EthicalCoffee #HumanRights #DeforestationFree #EUDR #SustainableCoffee #BrazilCoffee #LaborRights #SupplyChainTransparency #ClimateJustice #CoffeeIndustry #StopForcedLabor #JusticeForFarmworkers #CoffeeReform #TraceableCoffee #CaféJusto #FairWages #SustainableTrade #CleanSupplyChains #CorporateAccountability
