In 1993 The UN

Around 800,000 people are trafficked across borders annually. 80% are women & girls. We ask “Why?” www.asafeworldforwomen.org
In Canada, one woman in four is sexually abused by age 16. Women for a Change asks “Why?” www.asafeworldforwomen.org
In Mexico around 5,000 children are involved in prostitution, pornography & sex tourism. We ask “Why?” www.asafeworldforwomen.org
