Over 2-3 million women and girls are trafficked for the purposes of commercial sexual exploitation in India. Removing them from places of exploitation, providing them a safe space to heal and recover, protecting them from toxic and harmful influences and facilitating access to educational and vocational skills is a multi-layered intervention which requires concerted efforts. This project aims to support 600 victims of sex trafficking in their journey to regain dignity and build a life.
Human Trafficking for various purposes of exploitation is a serious concern in India. Millions of women & girls are trafficked for various purposes of which trade for commercial sexual exploitation or prostitution is the worst form. A woman or girl sold into prostitution is subjected to inhuman torture which impacts her body, mind and soul leaving irreversible scars.
