An estimated 260 million people face caste discrimination globally, and in India, one in six people are Dalits. Research has shown that the majority of those trapped in modern slavery, including child and, forced labourers and those engaged in hazardous work, such as manual scavenging, are from the lowest castes or indigenous communities in caste-affected countries.
