The Congregation of Jesus (CJ), a UN-registered NGO, is the CJ's global mission for justice and policy advocacy, bringing the voice of faith-based civil society to multilateral decision-making processes and serving as a key coordinating mechanism that connects the CJ's grassroots initiatives with global policy advocacy. It facilitates collaboration between regions, amplifies local voices, and ensures that collective actions effectively contribute to international efforts to eradicate human trafficking in all its forms.

As part of this action and commitment, the Congregation of Jesus* produced a 2025 Position Paper on Migration, Labour Exploitation, and Human Trafficking, led by sisters and team professionals in Albania, Hungary, Slovakia, Kenya, West Bengal (India), Spain, and Canada, bringing together the network's experiences and corresponding recommendations in the following areas: 1) Technology and human trafficking; 2) Human trafficking routes; 3) Vulnerability of women and children; 4) Labour exploitation; 5) Access to justice and human rights; and 6) Human trafficking and climate change.
