It is time to draw a line on what is acceptable. It is time to understand that trafficking is not a global problem but a local issue and one that needs the attention of local communities.
Human trafficking is a fraught and hotly debated information minefield—sometimes just getting to grips with the basics and the sheer scale of the problem can be over-whelming.
STOP THE TRAFFIK’s new book is designed to help youngsters to students to teachers to professionals—navigate this minefield and engage with this global issue in a practical and useful way. Demonstrated through real life stories, factoids and background information, this easy-to-read book opens the door on an unknown world that is often shrouded in mystery.
As an accessible resource, STOP THE TRAFFIK’s book is stuffed full of useful tips and ideas designed to empower individuals to be part of the global movement, to get involved to join the fight and STOP THE TRAFFIK.
‘STOP THE TRAFFIK People Shouldn’t Be Bought & Sold’ is written by Steve Chalke, Chair of STOP THE TRAFFIK & UN.GIFT Special Advisor on Community Action against Human Trafficking. The book includes a chapter authored by Cherie Blair—a renowned human rights lawyer and campaigner on women's rights and empowerment.
‘This book tackles head on the issues of organised immigration crime and trafficking in human beings as well as exploitation and extreme violence inflicted on victims. It is important that society does not turn a blind eye to this issue. It can be happening on the street where you live, work or socialise; whether that is in a source, transit or destination country. Law enforcement agencies across the world are focusing on this on-going tragedy and they need the help of friends, neighbours and people in agencies that provide support. Don’t turn a blind eye.’
ANDY BAKER, DEPUTY DIRECTOR, UK, SERIOUS ORGANISED CRIME AGENCY (SOCA).
‘I was trafficked. I survived. Men would always say I was the age of their daughter or their girlfriend. Stop and think what you would do if it was your daughter, son, sister, brother. Read this book and it will answer some of your questions and then stop the traffick.’
UK TRAFFICKING SURVIVOR
‘Make no mistake about it, trafficking is torture. It must not be allowed to continue – this book will help you to do your part, so please, please buy it and join the fight.’
EMMA THOMPSON, ACTRESS
‘Criminals take advantage of the fact that human beings are the world’s most precious “commodity”. Let’s finish what Wilberforce started. We can stop the traffick. And we MUST.’
