It is a global problem. A report from United Nations Offi ce on Drug and Crime\u003cbr\u003e in 2014 says that human traffi cking involves over three million people in the world, bringing their\u003cbr\u003e slaveholders an annual profi t of 32 billion dollars. According to the same report, there is no place in\u003cbr\u003e the world where children, women, and men are safe from human traffi cking.\u003cbr\u003e In the background, the stark reality of poverty, unemployment, social marginalization, political\u003cbr\u003e crises, wars, interethnic confl icts, and the militarization of entire territories has increased the massive\u003cbr\u003e displacements of the population, fuelling the illegal sex trade linked to them.\u003cbr\u003e Many youngsters who desire to improve their living conditions and those of their families fl eeing\u003cbr\u003e their homes often become prey to criminal organizations who take advantage of them, exploit them, \u003cbr\u003e and dehumanize them. Little do they know when they are leaving their homes to go to overseas, \u003cbr\u003e what is waiting for them is often something altogether diff erent, namely intimidation, blackmail, \u003cbr\u003e violence, nightmare, and slavery that strip them of all dignity and respect. To make matters worse, \u003cbr\u003e most of the victims and their families not only lose credibility but are also ostracized by their local\u003cbr\u003e communities when what happened comes to light. Th erefore, the victims of this painful chain are\u003cbr\u003e not only young girls and boys but also families. Unfortunately, some parents, especially mothers, \u003cbr\u003e have also been perpetrators of this deplorable crime. Th ey push their daughters into the arms of their\u003cbr\u003e torturers, lulled by the dream of a brighter future.\u003cbr\u003e To stop and to prevent the reoccurence of this criminal network of complicity, which has been more\u003cbr\u003e or less voluntary, conscious and unconscious, a joint commitment by all governments, organizations, \u003cbr\u003e local communities, and individuals is necessary. Everyone needs to remember and never forget that\u003cbr\u003e every human being, every person has been created and procreated in the image and likeness of God\u003cbr\u003e and is a subject of essential rights, which should never be violated but rather should be respected and\u003cbr\u003e upheld by everyone in every time and place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mary Dorothy Ezeh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1524597090\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781524597092\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Xlibris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/06\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 516\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.15d","brand":"Mary Dorothy Ezeh","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48445289332991,"sku":"9781524597092","price":28.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_77d4e55d-ca3f-494a-b545-f2d9b9acac85.jpg?v=1777217730","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/human-trafficking-and-prostitution-among-mary-dorothy-ezeh-9781524597092","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
