A resolution raising awareness of modern day slavery.
SRES 318 is a symbolic Senate resolution designating July 30, 2023, as World Day against Trafficking in Persons. It also commends the annual observance of January as National Human Trafficking Prevention Month and notes ongoing efforts to combat modern slavery. The resolution does not create new laws or funding but formally recognizes the scale of human trafficking (citing global estimates of 49.6 million people in modern slavery) and calls for international action. As a procedural resolution, it focuses solely on raising awareness rather than implementing policy changes.
