Forced labor remains one of the most persistent and underestimated supply chain risks in the world. According to the International Labour Organization, 28 million people, mostly women and children, are subjected to forced labor worldwide.
The challenge with forced labor isn’t a lack of data, but rather scattered data and information that leads to weak accountability, eroded trust, and prevents collaboration. Without strong data integrity, even the best insights fail to drive action.
WEF’s Global Data Partnership Against Forced Labour was launched to provide a practical, evidence-based model that turns existing information into collective intelligence and collaborative action to end forced labor.
interos.ai Chief Product and Technology Officer Yardley Pohl joined global leaders at the World Economic Forum’s Strategic Intelligence Outlook 2025 to explore how AI, data infrastructure, and cross-sector collaboration are reshaping supply chain resilience.
