World Day Against Trafficking in Persons: Reducing demand for the sexual exploitation of women and girls

This event seeks to move forward the important discussion about reducing the demand that fosters trafficking in persons by looking at pornography and trafficking through multiple angles. The panel discussion of experts will help the UN community and the women’s rights movement more broadly understand the harms of pornography from the perspective of victims, both in term so of their physical and mental health, the way pornography fuels demand for trafficking in persons, and the need for laws and policies to safeguard society from pornography, especially women and children, including age verification tools and other virtual safeguards.

DATE: Tuesday, July 30, 2024

TIME: 1:15pm – 2:30pm

LOCATION: UN Headquarters, Conference Room 5

Please RSVP to [[link removed]] by Thursday, July 25th for those needing a UN pass. This event will be webcast.
