Helping Villages Fight Human Trafficking

By Charlie Lamento | Criminal Law & Policy Center Director

The outrageous injustice of child sex trafficking is centuries old. Yet there is hope — because caring people like you are willing to fight, willing to give, willing to serve.

In 2021, we have been able to accomplish so much and with your help, we will accomplish so much more!

By delivering sustainable transformation (TCD) to villagers, they are able to protect and defend themselves from human trafficking and human rights violations. We are working with villages around the world to not only spread awareness about trafficking but to equip these villages with the necessary tools and information to prevent human trafficking.

And together, we’ve made great strides toward changing our culture:

With your help, we’ve inspired leaders from developing countries to strengthen laws their national laws protecting children from traffickers – while ensuring that predators are punished more severely.
We expose the truth by conducting research and documenting the realities of the trafficking world.
In Indonesia, were continuing our anti-trafficking work with Momma Hana, founder of Yayasan Pondok Kasih (YPK) to help them increase their government authorized birth certificate registration project of undocumented children and adults throughout Indonesia’s 34 providences, in an effort to prevent human trafficking and kidnapping - including delivering investigation and evidence training techniques to those involved in YPK’s smart car village visits.
Providing human trafficking prevention training and materials to inter-faith leaders representing various religions throughout Indonesia
Help raise financial support for YPK so they can purchase new smart cars to expand its services and aid relief to the hidden and hurting poor throughout Indonesia’s 34 provinces.
In Latin America, we have been asked to work with a Human Trafficking Team created by a coalition of several organizations to design anti-trafficking training materials that will be used to train trainers and leaders in Latin American countries who are committed to eradicating human trafficking and sexual exploitation of children.

All of this work is possible because of you and your generous support! I am excited about all of the things we will continue to accomplish together.

Thank you for your support and joining the fight!

Slavery Prevention in 2021

By Charlie Lamento | Criminal Law & Policy Center Director

In 2021, we will continue advancing our anti-trafficking work by leveraging those who have the greatest power to end this atrocity, by strategically expanding our relationships with key ambassadors, diplomats, members of parliament and international organizations representing 193 nations at the United Nations. Including the following activities:

Training government leaders and civil society organizations how to eliminate legislation, policies and laws that hinder the ability of police/prosecutors/judges to prosecute and convict pedophiles/human traffickers and their accomplices, while freeing more victims - as effective laws and their uncompromising enforcement play an irreplaceable role in abolishing human trafficking.
Reforming national justice systems by recommending new legislation and/or eliminating existing legislation that strengthens the justice system to increase human trafficking convictions. Legal reform plays a vital role in abolishing human trafficking;
Training government lawmakers, law enforcement, prosecutors, judges, and civil society organizations how to create local citizen-based initiatives that will help law enforcement and prosecutors convict more pedophiles/human traffickers and their accomplices.

We will also continue to spread awareness about slavery prevention in different villages. In January 2021, a Transformational Community Development (TCD) leader in DG Village, Kenya, was able to speak about the importance preventing human trafficking through awareness and education. There is an illiteracy problem in the community, which can cause a high risk of human trafficking. Now, women and men in the community are aware and able to see the warning signs of human trafficking.

We cannot do this alone. My hope is to build a committed team of 75 people willing to financially commit to partnering with us at the level of $1200 per year ($100 per month). This team will make it possible for us to advance our anti-trafficking work to the highest levels of influence to end human trafficking and victimization. As you may not know, our anti-trafficking advocacy work is 100% privately funded by generous partners like you.

Thank you for making it possible!

Anti-trafficking advocacy work in Geneva, Switzerland

By Daphne | Development Team

I am happy to inform you I have now moved to Geneva, Switzerland, so we can further advance our anti-trafficking work at the United Nations (UN).

As GHNI’s Chief UN Representative, I will now be able to further build and expand trust relationships with key ambassadors, UN diplomats, members of parliament and business leaders representing 193 nations. Geneva is also home to 15 major UN Agencies, 25 inter-governmental organizations, 229 diplomatic missions, 569 multinational companies, and 250 non-governmental organizations - so that we can advance the following anti-trafficking activities:

Train government leaders and civil society organizations how to eliminate legislation, policies and laws that hinder the ability of police/prosecutors/judges to prosecute and convict pedophiles/human traffickers and their accomplices, while freeing more victims - as effective laws and their uncompromising enforcement play an irreplaceable role in abolishing human trafficking;
Reform national justice systems by recommending new legislation and/or eliminating existing legislation that strengthens the justice system to increase human trafficking convictions. Legal reform plays a vital role in abolishing human trafficking;
Training government lawmakers, law enforcement, prosecutors, judges, and civil society organizations how to create local citizen-based initiatives that will help law enforcement and prosecutors convict more pedophiles/human traffickers and their accomplices.

You may or may not know this, but our anti-trafficking advocacy work is 100% privately funded by generous partners like you. GHNI is a privately funded, international, non-political, non-religious, (501c3) non-profit development organization dedicated to helping those who are hidden and hurting around the world.

We simply must to ensure more protection for women and children, especially those who cannot defend themselves from sexual predators and human traffickers! The number of these predators seem to be increasing at an alarming rate internationally, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic..

Geneva is home to 15 major UN Agencies, 25 inter-governmental organizations, 229 diplomatic missions, 569 multinational companies, and 250 non-governmental organizations. The Palais des Nations welcomes more than 25,000 delegates (significant international leaders) every year.

Geneva is the best place for us to leverage those who have the greatest power to end this atrocity!
