JANUARY IS HUMAN TRAFFICKING AWARENESS MONTH
January has been proclaimed as the “Human Trafficking Awareness Month,” a title that underscores the need to destigmatize important discussions about human trafficking and call attention to key facts and realities about human slavery.
We should take the opportunity to remove ourselves from the frenzy of our lives and redirect our time, energies and resources to brainstorming and investing in concrete solutions to the problem of human trafficking.
“Human Trafficking Awareness Month” not only ensures that issues of human trafficking is visible on the public radar screen, but more importantly mobilizes us to take steps to effect sustainable change in the lives of trafficked individuals across the world.
Human trafficking is a global phenomenon that manifests itself in the form of sex exploitation, debt bondage, and organ trafficking. It is especially prominent in economically deprived areas. Poverty lies at the heart of human trafficking.
One form of sex trafficking is the commercial exploitation of children. Traffickers enforce the belief that having sex with a virgin will cure people of their sexually transmitted diseases.1 Young girls are raped and tortured to such an extent that their reproductive system is permanently damaged depriving them of their natural right to motherhood.Sexual exploitation among young boys is rarely heard of because of the gender-biased assumption that there can never be male victims.
Trafficking is a global problem and it is likely that it will always be a prevalent issue. However, by continuing to educate and inform both developed and developing nations of such examples of twenty-first century slavery, there can be hope of fighting human trafficking thereby saving countless lives. The importance of educating developing countries is that positive change can occur from within.
