Carolina is many things: a wife, a mother, a teacher and a survivor of human trafficking. She uses her voice and her story to raise awareness about violence against women and girls. In South America, 62% of all reported victims are women and girls. #16Days

Trafficking networks use altered, stolen or fake documents, often obtained through corruption or coercion, to move victims across borders undetected. Better border checks, anti-corruption policies and int’l cooperation are key to spot fake documents. #EndHumanTrafficking

Digital violence goes far beyond cyberbullying & cyberstalking. Online spaces can enable gender-based violence, abuse & harassment. UNODC helps strengthen laws, train first responders & support justice systems to protect women, girls & everyone from online abuse. #16Days

Did you know that in some regions of the world a coyote is a person who smuggles migrants? Migrants pay coyotes a fee to cross borders. Migrant smuggling is a #DeadlyBusiness.

Worldwide there is a shortage of organs available for transplantation. The demand is growing! This leads desperate patients to resort to illegal ways of obtaining organs, increasing cases of human trafficking for organ removal.
