More than 70 years of activism on behalf of survivors and victims of sexual exploitation, women’s and human rights organizations, have resulted in important instruments of the International Human Rights Law.
These instruments remind ratifying countries their commitments to end trafficking in persons, and the abolition of sexual exploitation and the prostitution of others, as human rights violations that affect mostly women and children.
CAP International launches a pedagogical campaign for Spanish speaking countries explaining these commitments, as we celebrate the International day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.
The exploitation of the prostitution of others is not debated, it is combated. It is time to abolish sexual exploitation.
