The Human Trafficking and Modern Slavery National Minimum Dataset is a national data collection on modern slavery events that come to the attention of the Australian Government agencies responsible for responding to these incidents. This study describes modern slavery reports received between 1 July 2024 and 30 June 2025, the characteristics of victim-survivors and perpetrators identified in these reports, the nature of government-funded support provided to victim-survivors and the outcomes of modern slavery prosecutions.

The Australian Government funds two support programs for victim-survivors of modern slavery: the Support for Trafficked People Program (STPP) and the newly established Forced Marriage Specialist Support Program.
