Human trafficking is estimated to be a $32 billion per year industry.<\/h3>\n
\n

CAP International and its Indian member organization, Apne Aap, recently organized \u00a0The Last Girl First Congress in New Delhi–which gathered an amazing spread of 250 civil society representatives, leaders and decision makers from 30 countries and 5 continents, survivors of prostitution, and representatives of the most marginalized women and girls (indigenous, low caste, migrant, minorities) in hopes to continue to make advances against the sexual exploitation of women and girls.<\/p>\n

We were so pleased that GoPhil\u2019s Regional Program Manager Emily Bild could attend this important conference as we are deeply devoted to expanding our global human rights partnerships within this field. \u00a0A majority of GoPhil’s portfolio of vetted NGOs have missions devoted to the advancement of marginalized women and girls.<\/p>\n

During the conference, Emily was able to get a deeper understanding of the variables surrounding human trafficking specifically. Eight different survivors of sexual violence and forced prostitution gave their stories \u2014they came from a vast spectrum geographically– US, Canada, South Africa and India.<\/p>\n

Several NGOs with significant experience in fighting human trafficking from various countries spoke of their experience and key learnings. \u00a0Bishwo Ram Khada, Director of Maiti Nepal\u2028, estimates that 270,000 \u2013 400,000 children \u00a0are involuntarily in prostitution in South Asia. \u00a0He went on the say that every year approximately 12,000 Nepali girls and women are trafficked to India, with more than 20% of this number representing children. \u00a0 Nepal has changed from being a country of origin for trafficking to also one of both transit and destination country. \u00a0Women are not only being trafficked for the sex industry. but for surrogacy and breastfeeding, organ and skin transplant, bone and retina donation. \u00a0The 7,000 km border between India and Nepal is a real challenge to monitor–trafficked women and girls are often given fake passports with faulty date of birth, sometimes even traveling on other people\u2019s passports. \u00a0Much of this goes on undetected at border controls. \u00a0Khada stressed that there is no regional instrument to tackle the problem alongside a severe lack of coordination amongst stakeholders. \u00a0According to him, there is large failure to keep up with the dynamic nature and changing scope of trafficking. \u00a0Maiti Nepal has rescued 36,045 girls and has 12 transit homes and 3 prevention homes providing rehabilitation to survivors.<\/p>\n

Sergey Kapinos spoke from UNODC South Asia\u2028– an organization responsible for working on organized crime globally. \u00a0They state that human trafficking is the most grave form of global crime, now\u00a0estimated to be a $32 billion per year industry. \u00a0According to their statistics, women constitute 70% of those trafficking and children are the 2nd largest group \u2013 together accounting for 85-90% cases. \u00a0South Asia is particularly bad because of open and porous borders, creating intense migration flows and very unequal societies. \u00a0Trafficked women are being jailed for breaking morality laws or illegal immigration and have little to no access to legal support. \u00a0The biggest challenges, according to UNODOC, are insufficient knowledge and skills at border controls and a lack of cooperation regionally. \u00a0What is needed are reinforced regional cooperation, a sharing of expertise and good practices surrounding the 4 Ps = \u00a0protection, prosecution, prevention and partnership.<\/p>\n

We were so pleased that GoPhil’s Emily Bild could attend this thought-provoking and informative conference as we continue to invest in and build networks around small NGOs working to combat and prevent it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
