Buenos Aires, Argentina September 2009 -Fundación Mujeres en Igualdad is leading an online campaign to denounce the slavery of human beings, mostly women, children and teens by gathering short plays, dance, paintings, photos, visual installations, and texts against human trafficking.

To mark International Trafficking Day on September 23, Fundación Mujeres en Igualdad is hosting “A world against trafficking,” an online campaign to raise awareness about the scourge of human trafficking. Images on http://stophumantrafficking.ning.com/ will be projected on giant screens of participating cities around the world.

Monique Thiteux Altschul, executive director of Mujeres en Igualdad comments:

“Trafficking in persons is the annulment of all human rights.”

Altschul goes on to describe the initiative: “this campaign focuses on young people, teens and even children as they belong to the population most at risk. Also, it attempts to create awareness among customers: without clients there is no trafficking, nor prostitution, nor sexual exploitation.”
