STOP SEX TRAFFICKING OF CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE-SIGN THE PETITION


The Body Shop has several campaigns to defend human rights. One of these campaigns supports the fight against human trafficking. From The Body Shop website:


"This summer we'll be launching a petition calling upon governments to implement strict anti-trafficking policies and legislation, and dedicate more resources to help victims of trafficking. It doesn't end there. Because this is a global campaign, our objective is to join hands with thousands of other signatories around the world by taking our petitions to the United Nations in 2011."


If you support the cause, SIGN THE PETITION ONLINE. If you more than support the cause, blog/facebook/tweet about it (please). There's even a free download to help you spread the word via iphone.


If you need encouragement/want to learn more/read survivor stories-check out The Body Shop, Somaly Mam, or ECPAT to learn more.
