Become aware of the facts of one of the world's most rapidly growing industries--albeit illegal-- the sale of another human being for profit: children in third world countries being trained to kill with AK-47's, sweat shops with indentured child slaves or the flourishing child sex tourism industry in Asia. We might be less aware of the 300,000-800,000 juvenile girls being bought and sold in the U.S. today. Learn what is being done by churches in the WAPAC District, and how you can become a modern abolitionist.

The curriculum [of FAAST] is not about the agenda of any one organization, ministry or denomination, rather it is about the work of our Father’s Kingdon on earth. The global horror of trafficking of women and young children for sexual exploitation is now far bigger than any one organization, no matter how global. Organized crime around the world is networking together for the destructive purposes of sexual exploitation. How much more should we as people of faith around the world be working together to accomplish God’s purposes of healing and restoration? In the face of this exploding crime, the response of people of faith around the world be working together to accomplish God’s purposes of healing and restoration? In the face of this exploding crime, the response of people of faith must be greater, more coordinated, and more collaborative than anything we’ve ever attempted before in order to challenge this horrendous evil and bring hope to its hurting victims. 602 The 603 RESOURCES TO INFORM ACTION AGAINST HUMAN TRAFFICKING Gathered by Margaret Scott NATIONAL and/or INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS POLARIS PROjECT: By successfully pushing for stronger federal and state laws, operating the National Human Trafficking Resource Center hotline (1-888-373-7888), conducting trainings, and providing vital services to victims of trafficking, Polaris Project creates long-term solutions that move our society closer to a world without slavery. http://www.polarisproject.org/ EXODUS CRY: Exodus Cry is built on a foundation of prayer and is committed to abolishing sex slavery through Christ-centered prevention, intervention, and holistic restoration of trafficking victims, produces films http://exoduscry.com/ EUROPEAN FREEDOM NETWORK (EFT) is a strategic network of the European Evangelical Alliance that connects active and emerging ministries and other stakeholders across Europe.

Bouklis1 Abstract The antithesis between a criminalization and a human rights approach in the context of transnational trafficking in women has been a highly contested issue. On the one hand, it is argued that a criminalization approach would be better because security and border control measures will be fortified. On the other hand, it is maintained that a human rights approach would bring more effective results, as this will mobilize a more holistic solution, bringing together prevention, prosecution, protection of victims and partnerships for delivering gendered victims’ services. In the field of victims’ services, galloping US-influenced developments have mobilized victim- specific strategies and institutionalized a “victim industry” vocabulary: “reflection period”, “screening process”, “cooperation in exchange for protection”, “happy trafficking”, “renew boutique” etc.

  • Trafficking in Persons Report June 2012
    INTRODUCTION TRAFFICKING IN PERSONS REPORT JUNE 2012 1 Dear Reader: Over the coming months we will celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation, which Abraham Lincoln announced on September 22, 1862 and issued by Executive Order on January 1, 1863. In 1865, as the guns of the Civil War fell silent, the Congress passed and the states ratified as the 13th Amendment to the Constitution President Lincoln’s commitment that “neither slavery nor involuntary servitude shall exist in the United States.” Like the United States, countries around the world have enacted laws and adopted international instruments to end slavery as a legal institution and to eliminate it as a criminal practice. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights prohibits slavery and involuntary servitude. More recently, the UN Palermo Protocol has made the abolition of modern-day slavery a part of international law and a policy-making priority. Governments across the globe are united in this struggle. Yet, despite the adoption of treaties and laws prohibiting slavery, the evidence nevertheless shows that many men, women, and children continue to live in modern-day slavery through the scourge of trafficking in persons. The anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation marks not just a moment in our history, but an enduring commitment to freedom that we advocate and defend. Because we have not yet realized a world free from modern slavery, that commitment remains relevant today, and leads us to consider what abolition means in the face of modern-day slavery. One way is to know on whose behalf we work – the survivors. Earlier this year, I visited a trafficking shelter in Kolkata.
