The
Safe Space - Sex Trafficking
In
Association With:
The
Jewish Community Centre for London
_____________________________________
The Safe Space is a series of workshops developed by the
JCC and JCORE and led by people who work in the field of
immigration and asylum. Come along, get involved and join
the discussion.
Every year thousands of women and children are sex
trafficked around the world. Many are brought to the UK on
false pretences of a better life and are subjected to abuse
and exploitation. Derek Wax, producer of
the film Sex Traffic, and Denise Marshall,
Chief Executive of Eaves, a London-based charity that
provides housing and support to vulnerable women, and
campaigns to prevent all forms of violence against women,
will discuss, alongside clips of the film, how sex
trafficking has been able to flourish and whether
legislation is effectively protecting the lives of those
caught up in the industry.
The panel will be chaired by Tricia Young,
the trustee for Eaves responsible for the POPPY project,
which works with trafficked women and founder of Odanadi UK,
which supports an organisation in Mysore, India, working to
combat human trafficking.
