The Apprentice - A Campaign to Abolish the Slave Trade!

September 24th, 2008 |

Alan Sugartrader of the good ship Amistrad leads the abolitionist movement in your local town. He has invited ambitious young businesspeople to come up with a brand new national campaign designed to generate support for the anti-slavery cause. Using a range of sources and a structured framework for preparation, groups of students have to produce a viable campaign which justifies who it is aimed at, where it will be focused and how it will fund itself.
