The Global Slavery Index is an annual ranking of slavery conditions in countries (2013 n = 162)
world wide published by the Walk Free Foundation. It is based on a combined measure of three
factors: 1) estimated prevalence of modern slavery by population (using primary and secondary
data sources); 2) a measure of child marriage; and 3) a measure of human trafficking in and out of a
country. Some countries, for which no data were available, were given the same rate as countries
which were judged to be similar. For example, prevalence rates for Britain were applied to Ireland
and Iceland and those for America, to several western European nations, including Germany. This
aspect of the methodology has attracted some criticism.[1]
