Abstract	"Slavery is wrong. If slavery is right, all words, acts, laws, and Constitutions against it, are themselves wrong, and should be silenced and swept away" The right against slavery stands as a cornerstone of human rights, encapsulating the essence of human dignity and autonomy. Rooted in the principle that no individual should be subjected to the horrors of exploitation and bondage, this fundamental right has historical significance and contemporary relevance. From the transatlantic slave trade to modern-day forms of forced labour and human trafficking, the struggle against slavery persists as a global imperative. This paper explores the historical context, international and national legal frameworks to prohibit slavery and ongoing challenges in upholding the right against slavery. It emphasizes the importance of collective action, advocacy, and international cooperation in eradicating all forms of slavery and ensuring that every person can live a life of freedom, dignity, and equality.
