<p>Ending modern day slavery in all its forms, including sex trafficking and forced
marriage, is a priority for DFID Burma. We address this through support to the Livelihoods
and Food Security Fund (LIFT), to which the UK has provided £187 million since 2010.
DFID undertook a slavery assessment across Burma in 2018. As a result, we tripled
funding through LIFT to tackle modern slavery to £40m.</p><p> </p><p>We are currently
developing a new programme addressing forced marriage which will work with mothers
of daughters aged 10-18 in highly vulnerable areas, including displaced people’s camps.</p>
