This serious issues is close to my heart and i dedicate my time to educate and empowering this young women and teaching them to be self reliant and building up their self confident and letting them know the need to say no to human trafficking.

CAUSES OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING.
People in precarious situation are looking for a way out and in their desperation can fall prey to human traffickers.

  1. WAR: armed conflicts can lead to massive forced displacement of people, ear creates large number of orphans & street childern who are especially vulnerable to trafficking .
  2. SOCIAL & CULTURAL PRACTICES: Many cultures devalue, abuse and exploit women & girls, creating perilous living conditions for these women, with little opportunities of upward mobility & little value placed on women and girls.
  3. LEAVING A PLACE OF POVERTY TO GAIN WEALTH: many victims wants to get out of their situation so they can risk everything to leave poverty this gives human traffickers bait to lure them to move to different country, upon their arrival to another state captors take control the practice of entrusting poor childern to friends and relatives may create vulnerability, some parent sell their childern not just for the money, but in hope that their childern may have a better life and escape poverty .
  4. POLITICAL CONDITIONS: politival instability, militarism or civil unrest can result to an increase in trafficking as well, the destabilization & scarttering of populations increase their vulnerability to unfair treatment & abuse via trafficking and forced labor.

WAYS OF FIGHTING HUMAN TRAFFICKING

  1. Investment in education: Government should invest sufficiently in the area of education and also education infrastructure as well as introducing topics to enlighten the student on human trafficking. Parents should also endeavour to maintain small size family and give their wards minimum level of education, as education remain the best legacy a parent can leave for a child.
  2. Creating of employment and skills acquisition: job should be created for masses as large number of people were lured in to the act due to unemployment and poverty, skill acquisition center should be establised to train people on skills necessary to earn a living, as well as providing them with soft loan to start the business with.
  3. Resolution of conflicts in the country: Government should seek for ways to eradicated the security challenges in the country so as to reduce the number of internally displaced persons and destruction of peoples business, life and property.
  4. Proper monitoring of human movement especailly at the border.
  5. Rural orentation.
  6. Partnering with telecommunication companies.

Human trafficking is practically inhumane, those who practice it are not qualified to be with the human race. I support your campaign 100% thanks for sharing this info.

Thank u dear

Upvote and follow and resteemed!!! Thank you for posting this.

U are welcome dear. We keep trying our best.

Only government can educate kids? You know, my mom was my education and she didn't work for the government. For a while, my mother was just a housewife. Government can help. Private schools can do better. Trafficking is a big problem. Thanks for talking about it. I'm Oatmeal.

Yes government can do better, but our fate should not be totally on them, let start the education in our own little way and government can come in later.

Agreed, educating our children, our future, helps, in so many ways, as we are to be independent more and more apart from governments and it takes gradual steps each day.
