This Video Reveals What Thousands of Women are Being Forced to Endure. (Caution: Disturbing Images)
'Harlot's Sauce' is a fun name for a memoir, but prostitution, especially prostitution as slavery, is no joke at all.
We hope this page raises awareness of what thousands of women from many different countries are being forced to endure. The Palermo Protocols were adopted by the United Nations in 2000 in Palermo, Italy, together with the Convention against Transnational Organized Crime. They are:
* the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, especially Women and Children; and
* the Protocol against the Smuggling of Migrants by Land, Sea and Air.
The information above was obtained from The Child Trafficking Website, whose mission statement is:
"Each day, more children are trafficked into prostitution, forced labour, child marriage and other slavery-like conditions. Each day sees the growth of skills and experience of traffickers and those who purchase trafficked persons.
Each day, the challenges grow greater for those who seek to prevent child trafficking and provide care for children who have been trafficked. We can effectively fight trafficking only if our knowledge, our experience and our skills surpass those of the traffickers.
Over the last 20 years, anti-trafficking organizations and individuals in all corners of the world have clarified issues, conducted research, developed strategies and carried out interventions. Today, to be more effective in the war against trafficking, we need to share our accumulated knowledge, skills and experience on a global platform."
