Empower Women with Possibilities

We walk the Whole Journey of

Restoration Alongside Survivors

Everyone deserves to live a life where they are free

But we live in world where slavery is on the rise. Modern slavery includes forced labour, debt bondage, forced marriage and human trafficking. In these situations, people cannot refuse or leave because of threats, violence, coercion and abuse of power.

  • One in eight in forced labour are children
  • One in three women and girls will experience abuse or exploitation in her lifetime
  • 27.8M people are in forced labour and 22M are in forced marriage

Hagar’s work is rooted in the belief that every individual deserves freedom, dignity and a life free of exploitation.

As global leaders in Trauma Informed Care, we specialise in survivor care, prevention and ground-up policy change.

We started in Cambodia in 1994, and since more than 60% of trafficking originates in Asia and the Pacific, we continue to focus our efforts in that region. Our global programmes are led by skilled local teams and implementing partners.

As Jacob Heals, His Love For Learning Grows

When Jacob arrived at Hagar’s boy’s shelter in Afghanistan, he was sad and angry. He was only 12 years old but trauma was already etched on his face.

Over the next few months in Hagar’s care, Jacob began to heal.
