Human trafficking is the third largest criminal industry in the world(1) and it is thought that 1.2 million children and young people are trafficked every year for sexual exploitation and cheap labour(2).

Philippine Trafficking facts

- In the Philippines, 60,000 to 100,000 children are trafficked annually (through both cross-border & internal trafficking), and most of these girls are to be sexually exploited.

- The Philippines also ranks fourth in the world in terms of countries with the highest number of prostituted children.

Inspired by our founder Anita Roddick and her commitment and passion for justice, The Body Shop is proud to continue her fight against human trafficking, bringing awareness of this modern-day slave trade to world leaders and the global community.

Oddly enough, :rolleyes: I'M currently reading a detective thriller ... 'A Rush of Blood' by renowned Scottish :Kilt: author, Quintin Jardine ... which concerns the trafficking of nine Eastern European [Estonian] girls to work in Edinburgh massage parlours. :cwm24: Dreadful business!
