		<description><![CDATA[<p><strong>BEHIND THE CLICK: REWRITING THE ALGORITHM TO REDUCE DEMAND AGAINST EXPLOITATION</strong></p>
<p><em>Conference speakers are all survivors and lived experience experts.</em><span></span></p>
<p><span>Please join United Abolitionists, Inc. and the University of Central Florida&rsquo;s Center for the Study of Human Trafficking and Modern Slavery for the 18</span><span>th</span><span> Annual Human Trafficking Awareness Conference. This hybrid conference</span><span> brings together survivors, lived-experience leaders, advocates, technologists, researchers, and policymakers to confront the growing role of technology in driving human trafficking. We will identify innovative strategies, policy reforms, and tech-based interventions that protect vulnerable populations, disrupt exploitative networks, and empower survivors to lead systemic change. This is more than a conversation; it&rsquo;s a movement to rewrite the algorithm and reclaim the digital space for safety, justice, and freedom.</span><span>&nbsp;</span></p>
