Re:Structure Lab Partnership Releases Forced Labor Brief

December 22, 2021

The Gilder Lehrman Center is pleased to announce that the Re:Structure Lab partnership has released its fourth and fifth evidence briefs on forced labor. The fourth brief, “Labour Share and Value Distribution,” discusses the uneven allocation of earnings in supply chains. The fifth brief, Worker Debt and Inequality, explores solutions such as alternative corporate accountability mechanisms; government and value redistribution policies; reparations for historical injustice; debt relief; and business model innovation. A partnership between the University of Sheffield, Stanford University, Simon Fraser University, and the Gilder Lehrman Center for the Study of Slavery, Resistance and Abolition at the MacMillan Center at Yale, the Re:Structure Lab project is funded by Humanity United and the Freedom Fund.
