Trafficked. Forced to scam. Then jailed for it. Iโ€™ve met young survivors, migrants, even children, treated like criminals instead of victims. This #WorldDayAgainstTrafficking, letโ€™s get it right: Protect survivors. Punish traffickers. #EndHumanTrafficking

Survivors of human trafficking are often forced to walk the path to recovery alone โ€“ silenced, punished and left behind. On #WorldDayAgainstTrafficking, we must break their chains, bring their stories to light, and stand for their freedom. Together, we can #EndHumanTrafficking.

Human trafficking exploits vulnerabilities along migration routes and across borders. On #WorldDayAgainstTrafficking, we stand with survivors. Protection must follow the person, justice must be survivor-centered, and punishment must never fall on those who were exploited.
