The Problem
More than 31,600 total cases of
human trafficking have been reported to the Hotline in the last eight years.
And that is just in the United States and that is only the reported cases of
Human Trafficking. Like I said previously it is worse than it’s ever been but
with so much focus on immigration and the election the media has almost forgot
to report how bad it is, for example lately they have also been taking a couple
hundred men which isn’t a lot but just goes to show you that almost nobody is
safe now a days. That is why now a days you should never travel alone and
always have your cell phone on you and ready to go. Human trafficking is not
only a human security issue, but the fight against human trafficking is also
one of the most important human rights causes of our generation and nobody is
aware of this. There are many ways and articles on how to prevent human
trafficking. You can seek out anti-trafficking organizations or create a
startup organization geared toward spreading awareness and ways to prevent
these acts from occurring. Or you can find the local, state and federal
government representatives and inform them about how to combat human
trafficking in the community, and also ask what they are doing to address human
trafficking in your area and at the global perspective. Bring awareness to
schools and universities. Encourage information to be provided in the
curriculums and in the classrooms.
