World Day Against Trafficking in Persons is a global observance held on July 30th each year to raise awareness about the alarming issue of human trafficking. It serves as a reminder to take collective action to prevent this crime, protect victims, and prosecute those responsible.
Women’s Consortium of Nigeria recently organised a community outreach to sensitise Iwaya women against sexual and gender-based violence.
