Human Slavery Is Thriving in the Shadows
By Mirela Xanthaki, IPS News. Posted February 23, 2009.

Over 10 million people around the world are victims of human trafficking.

The most common form of human trafficking is sexual exploitation (79 percent) followed by forced labor (18 percent).[...]
Nearly four in five victims are women and girls. Including boys, 20 percent of all trafficking victims in the world are children, but in some parts of Africa and Asia's Mekong region, children are the majority.

According to the US Department of Justice, the vast majority of juvenile prostitutes are children whose parents are divorced, deceased, drug addicts, alcoholics or mentally ill. The absence of a safe home, together with the expectedly low self-esteem these children suffer from, make them far more vulnerable to exploitation from pimps.
