PAST PROJECTS
Forced Labor in the Supply Chain
Project Leader: Forced Labour Lab, Sheffield Hallam University
Contact: Alexandra Moore, amoore@binghamton.edu
This project uses publicly-available information to identify companies in China that are utilizing forced labor transfers of minoritized people in the making of products that feed into global supply chains. We identify at-risk suppliers and create evidence briefs about their potential for tainting the products we buy. Our outputs will include reports, data sets, and social media campaigns to raise awareness of forced labour in the Uyghur region, as well as to provide an evidence base for ethical action on the part of governments, advocates, and corporations.
Reports from this group are through the Forced Labour Lab at Sheffield Hallam University:
Disability Rights
Project Leader: Alexandra Moore,amoore@binghamton.edu
In partnership with The Graphix Project and the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, this research group, including the students in the spring 2023 capstone for human rights minor, analyzed normative structures of human rights for disabled persons, barriers to the rights guaranteed by the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in the world' least developed countries (LDCs, as identified by the UN), civil society disability rights and services organizations in the LDCs, and the services and barriers to services on our campus for students with disabilities. The group released two reports in spring 2023 (available under PUBLICATIONS and REPORTS).
GTMO Accountability Project (GAP)
Project leader: Alexandra Moore,amoore@binghamton.edu
In this project, we examined allegations of abuse and illegal activity at Guantanamo and in the CIA's Rendition, Detention, and Interrogation program in the War on Terror. Activities include producing a public service announcement in partnership with North Carolina Stop Torture Now to call on the Governor and Attorney General of North Carolina to investigate the state's engagement in the RDI program. For more information on the role of North Carolina in the program, see: nctorturereport.org. Participants also examined GTMO witness testimony.
