Strengthening Human Rights & Tackling Modern Slavery Risks

The AUPN is leading a sector-wide collaboration to help member universities enhance human rights transparency and manage modern slavery risks in their supply chains and operations. This initiative supports compliance with the Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Cth) while reducing duplication of efforts and associated costs across universities.

By collectively leveraging our resources to assess risks, share best practice, and develop standardised systems for risk management and remediation, participating universities optimise transparency and accountability, strengthening our overall human rights commitment and impact.
