PREVENTION OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING,
EARLY MARRIAGE & GENDER VIOLENCE
GoPhil is partnering and developing key networks with a growing number of passionate NGOs working on the front-lines of some of the most challenging human rights issues of our time - human trafficking, gender violence, female genital mutilation (FGM) and early marriage.
Many abuses to human rights take place in impoverished areas within ethnic minority or marginalized communities lacking knowledge of their legal rights. GoPhil identifies, invests and scales the work of bold change-makers and organizations seeking to foster systemic changes in the area of global human rights including the prevention of human trafficking, bonded labor, gender violence, female circumcision (FGM) and early marriage. Our partner programs are working on the front-lines of the complex issues and with our support, they can continue to make the positive changes needed.
PARTNER PROGRAMS RECEIVING FUNDING
Blue Dragon is one of the most well known organizations in Vietnam, with a great reputation for their work with street children and rescuing victims of trafficking. Child Rescue Nepal (CRN) has been working since 1999, rescuing trafficked children, caring for them, educating them and - wherever possible - safely re-integrating the children with their families. SASANE is a survivor-led organization established in 2008 under the founding principle that women survivors of human trafficking have immense potential to combat the exploitation of Nepalese women and girls, and to create social change. Shakti Shalini is a Delhi-based NGO that actively works against all forms of gender violence. Violence against women remains a critical issue in India and requires concerted effort at individual, community and policy levels to bring about change. GB Road is known as a sex worker’s area in Delhi comprising around 95 brothels. Most of the women working in the area are trafficked into prostitution, tricked by their boyfriend or others, and held against their will. Poverty is one of the main causes of forceful entry into prostitution. The most vulnerable group in this sector is children of prostitutes. Vikalp Sansthan's vision is to create a violence-free society based on equity, peace and justice, where all people enjoy physical and mental freedom, freedom from gender violence, equal opportunity and freedom from discrimination.
