stories and developments that are rapidly changing the world we live in to what extent will china be a drag on the global economy in 2020 counting the cost on al-jazeera. they are the voiceless and vulnerable forced to work against their will millions of people are condemned to lives of slavery he didn't in remote areas behind factory walls and in brick kilns where abuse is common it's on advantage but it's all gone through a lot like me to get a dog out of miller now the fight against slavery is going into space we're able to say to the local n.g.o.s here is a brick kiln that we believe has all the earmarks of slave labor $101.00 east explores how technology is giving slavery nowhere to hide.

there was more. walk around. to fight against slavery has a new weapon. has. 2 sides cornered leverage that. it is a lawyer working for volunteers to social justice vs j a local n.g.o.s fighting to free families from slavery and set another one if you've got a quarter. of a 30 year. the s.j. has freed thousands of people in northern india from slavery. today they going to

a raid at taco bricks. the kilns distinctive footprints can be seen clearly from space using station satellite technology. what we can think of a fiction naif. typical of 50 to kill a cow dr doreen boyd is an associate professor of civil actions at the university of nottingham and she points out the telltale signs of slave labor. what we're looking at full. building typically you know a family will be living in order for the bird to return. you can see the smoke from the chimney that shows the food that this is an active kale and both of labor being use all of you think people and i thought it would be perhaps the prevalent focus playfully activity bonded labor for example happening in the film to.

look at the nuts and some of the food there into. the world and. i'm going to go into the big conference is to me 1st because. it's. from a covered congress congress and everybody commission said we're going to. let it go to a good idea not a diplomatic yeah but if we're going down. on the ground here in america heard in this new fact that hamas and his wife fled to debbie a bone did work is at the kill. about it and i'm going to give it some other the mccartney that's your mother never mind about our. money going to be going to granted this is. very sobering talk about modern slavery kevin bales is one of the world's leading experts on modern slavery whole families are in slave to do this work to pack the

mud cut the mud make it into bricks and the very dangerous work of firing the bricks as well. as i had spent several months in brick kilns and i had worked out very precisely the exact economics of the brick business and the particularly the slave based brick business and that was important to understand where were these bricks going how were they were being produced how did slave holders make a profit we still however even after all that were good was done had no idea of how many recounts there were where they all were and so forth. he decided to fight slavery by joining forces with fellow academics like dr stuart mom i'm an observation specialist so using imagery from all bits around the planet a social scientists came to see it was and this. is great that we've got this interest you focused on this observation. would you be able to see slavery. and

so we said we don't know what the slavery looked like and for us at the stage it was completely new and i showed the satellite images that i had found of slavery spaces i showed them pictures that i had taken on the ground of people in slavery in those same spaces and begin to say why don't we do at least a pilot test which we did on the sugar bones unesco world heritage site in bangladesh looking at. fish processing camps that use child slaves and in that short pilot we discovered far you've known process in camps and cheers to latitude and longitude you really ought to do something about it. following the success of the pilot study they turned their attention to one of the biggest uses of slave labor in india according to anti-slavery international. and the reason we thought it with the book it's surely due to the number of.

the number of people that work in the film for they tend to be working under forced labor so if we can actually. help more people than we could face if we focus on another type of flavor the activity. the slavery from space projects brings together earth observation scientists geographies social scientists engineers and computer specialists they watching 4000 miles from the raid unfolding at the brick kiln. it's estimated that up to 23000000 people are held in debt bondage in india and a 3rd of the children working for up to 9 hours a day. just. chandra gotay has 4 children aged between $9.20 they all work at the brick kiln

with her to try and make their minimum quota of bricks. the younger 2 often work at night so they can sometimes go to school during the day to get a better job. in. their. b.s.j. suspects 14 adults and. 10 children being forced to work as slaves here including pommelled cooma and his family his outlook for the day i get it and it's not what i had done i doubt there's. going to a man who takes a job. but if you. are going to talk a little. bit there's not a bond to get a. good mother. straight about a lot of backing up without either of them and the 1st. time

that some of the guys they're going to write the men in red is chandran seeing a jem'hadar contract he brings the labor is from the villages in pradesh to the kilns turn i'm going to get to you i mean your mother child bond sells that over we're going to put anybody but the. dutch i look down and we can learn again you're going to go away you know it was harder to be able to go about them going to target to know and you gave me will you meaning accommodating. the person if the dog got to be big so it's a legacy i'm talking about we're told by someone there to support. somebody to. go to the living place today and you saw a whole above question from last night i'm not there not really but i just got out of principle with most of. the that i'm not one of those it was not my. kind of optimism is difficult. but i have. it tested out.

in the part of the company if it was not the sort of never got to be. favored by the minute but i'm going to and then i will get some. brick kiln arna is have a legal responsibility to make sure that children go to school instead of working in the kill. we don't need it again i need it back pain ain't got it yeah yeah got that money that i got it i got that i got he got but not me got any and i don't have any of these is serious accusations against the killing. he finally arrives at the kill with a politician framed for the 1st. woman to come to her. and that i work on. they're coming up i'm going to do it and then both of.

them back in a 3 minute. round of them. tell them about this i've been going to their home country morning argues that. they're going to determine things better and under oath to tell you just very much the. indian national law requires that kiln owners have contracts with their work is that they paid fairly and the records are kept of their payments. they hated b.s.j. jai seeing wants to make sure the owner of the kiln as he's paper would know what a. very. good where. it was in the 1. 100 but in the middle and. these j. brings legal cases against employees who use slave labor and reports them to authorities they try to get certificates from the employers that prove that bonded

work is that i don't owe any money. you. know not only pardoned just leave. your home is not. without vs j's intervention chandra about his family could be enslaved for life when she or her husband died. is that children can be compelled to continue the bondage where they they had a. basic i get basic painting. as it were and that it. will be up by saying a bit painting l but good about it but how do you know. what to peggy i need to drag you need to go home but indicate that i was wrong. ensuring their freedom is not that simple the matter still has to be hurting course like.

the adults in 10 children ascent to pack their belongings into 2 trucks. with their future uncertain their families are taken to the district courthouse. 2 satellites have long been used to map environmental change but using them to track slavery is new. so i'd say you could split them into 2 groups we've got the traditional soft light stuff have been put up by space agencies for many many years going back to the the end of the sixty's 970 s. when nothing to victory began. and that's the sort of the the modest resolution satellites.

then you have a 2nd group of sensors coming more from the private sector. a big trend there is to go to microsoft life so. much much smaller faster development times and you can have many on one moon. between lutie want you to pinpoint. alva killed i know this with more about them then we need to look at something like that if this is high resolution they. couldn't name a she is absolutely amazing the detail you can feel incredible each one of the pitfalls and the symmetry and the meta white we need to choose the right technology and the wife life in which way for how to kill a pet but. equally important is the number of times a satellite passes over the same location the more often it does the more the sites

can be monitored it lights going around the earth and the earth spins beneath it and you would cover the entire earth typically in something like a month so to go back to an image of the same spot again it'll be a month later and so you can have monthly snapshots of the suspected site if you put a 2nd satellite 180 degrees apart and they orbit like that and you can go twice as often a century with the radar satellite we've got to revisit round about 6 days a moment so it's a real improvement if you put a constellation of satellites in place to massively increases the revisit time so you get to revisit time down to a day or or so. a museum or to live there in the. middle. of. the

work it's a waiting at the district court house they're tired and hungry. you can see. smugglers or. the courts will decide the fate of. his wife and daughter along with the other families tomorrow. if the owner of the kiln can provide records of their payments and a license they'll be taken back to his field. in the. specially in the brick and said. you know what a converter might bend there wifeless here there are 3 fists here and on the other there in the brick kiln owners they are asked to finish and how to vary i would of . course to shoot they if you threw you. know 2 to

children had been found. and they employed is not to bring them in when reduced. you should be charged. particle with their life and liberty but. the laws on the part of. their do not benefit to. a cause. or are on the next day outside the courthouse the families awaiting for the verdict sitting in the same spot under the tree their faces being decided inside without any input from them on the beach the wooden but still it does it lets up the sound of that bell at the sound of a johnny i'm not going. to be danny gans out of a live in on the myth that a lot of. these are often migrant workers are often of

a different ethnicity or even religious group they're not voters they're not really of interest to people in power above police the lead on this is almost always with non-governmental organizations in geos human rights groups. in future it's hope satellite images can be used as evidence to help workers prove the case they're often fighting against local corruption. and apple i think this could be very powerful in legal procedure proceedings and in court cases not least because it's not just about being able to prove specific cases of enslavement but also by demonstrating patterns of exploitation and enslavement and this does that. the brick belt covers a vast one and a half 1000000 kilometers stretching across india pakistan nepal china and

bangladesh it encompasses hundreds of thousands of kills and keeps millions in debt bondage. the area covered by what we call the brick bell is huge there's no way from the ground you can count the. mapping the brick belts will give the 1st hard data about the numbers and location of killed. but even with modern satellite technology it's a massive task. speeding up the mapping process is vital for the nottingham teens to cover the entire area. doreen boy has never been to the brick belt and hadn't heard of modern slavery until a few years ago now her focus is the united nations' goal of eliminating slavery by 2030. machine learning is the digital key that will unlock the data to help reach that target is she learning the thought of. that of artificial

intelligence and what we're doing that if we're training the computer out with them in the computer to under fire and what to put home looks like in an image so we give out with them acknowledge all the different types of kelman different picture ways show them different location and by each iteration the out with them will. fly. i won't keep trying. you let it leak all over the images that we haven't seen before and it will faithfully be. 95 percent to the 5th with him in this location and maybe some identify him that will tell if the slave we it's happening if. anybody else is. listening. at the courtroom and. jai sing from

vs jay and the owners of the brick kiln have been in and out of the court room all day. in the dark but it's very very sustainable and they're pretty good in that neither did the clinton or. if the court decides in their favor they'll be granted a city if it could have release a key document proving that they bonded labor is and did not owe the contract to any money. they have been made and that's where they never run it by name or that. in their home state it would help predict the s.j. holds village meetings to help workers understand their rights and prevent future in slave meant but for some it's too late. to get out of them out. of the loop of.

bubba and his wife xan a big grin slaved with a family of 12 even though they've escaped and returned home to pradesh they're not free and they've been they've got to meet me god i'm out of the believe. me i've had what are you going to lay out. all going to me to be going to. i'm going to get mad about. that or do things. without the official release it if it could given by of course the bonded labor is a never free from a debt and have little hope of ever being paid any money. and his family paid nothing in the 3 years they worked at the kiln. back home and they still being pursued for their alleged debts. on the market was. started $31.00 so we are going to reviving the economy but i got a bill or. order book from the owner of. my not to go down the road but there you

go. as they don't have to release a ticket the owner has filed a legal case against them claiming they owe him the equivalent of $2000.00. i mean i'm. finally back at the courts 2 of the vs j. workers have news for. them not for. the greater. good. cause. it's good news and a win for these workers. they're all officially free from slavery and don't owe the kill no net any money. oh snap net check and i bought a 2nd man who could see i'm not buying the gun equipment up at about me they're

estimating. there's more good news to come the release it if it gets granted by the court entitle them to state benefits which could change their whole future. there's a provision in that bonded labor law that says if you have just been liberated from slavery you can have an immediate cash payment not a very large but enough to make sure that you. have food clothing and shelter so that if you tried to run away from all your possessions run away from the place where you were working say a brick you'll at least be able to feed yourself house your family and so forth. it's 9 pm official photos and needed for the paperwork after that the families will be on their way home with some money in their pockets. this 2nd part of that grant is a much larger payment and the wonderful thing about that is that it's geared to being a nuff to get you on your feet economically and i've been

a happily surprised and very pleased when i've seen how many of these ex slave families have built very solid businesses of all sorts. wa. so as far as satellite dates are concerned there's an open skies policy so the soft lights see everything no nation can turn them off and so does nothing any nation can do about it if you just a joke. fighting slavery from space is becoming more and more effective as satellites multiplied and costs decrease. now i think our dream is it would be able to put up our own satellite to have our own slavery satellite in space that we can use 24 seventh's to look for people in slavery and to help get them free that would

be a very powerful very beautiful thing. it's midnight at the train station in her shy people and the families are in bopping on their long journey. back to their villages in which to predation and to relatives they haven't seen for over 3 years . space age technology and slavery don't often go hand in hand to this use that satellite imagery is a real breakthrough in tackling one of the world's keeping secrets freeing many more people from the curtis of modern slavery. january on al-jazeera president donald trump is that that president in history to be impeached what does this mean for the future of the u.s. leader on the brink of an election before much chilian presidential candidate
