Over the course of 2022, the National Survivor Network partnered with the Global Fund to End Modern Slavery to develop new frameworks for meaningful survivor engagement and inclusion in decision-making in the anti-trafficking sector. This toolkit is what we developed for our use in our own organizations, and hope will be useful broadly.
About the toolkit:
- Learn more about the Lived Experience Engagement Spectrum!
- Learn how to move your organization up the Lived Experience Inclusion Ladder!
- Learn about how to address common barriers to meaningful lived experience!
- Get access to 30+ pages of surveys, tools, and evaluation guidance you can use to measure your organization’s progress toward meaningful survivor engagement!

Errata:
