World Chamber of Commerce Creating Awareness Regarding Human Trafficking

Solange Warner, World Chamber of Commerce Chairman spoke about human trafficking awareness during the World Chamber of Commerce Film and Real Estate Summit. She stated that according to the U.S. Department of State, Forced labor, is the largest sector of trafficking in the world, which includes domestic servitude, child begging and even removal of children organs. Solange said “There are around 300,000 children sold as slaves, by human traffickers every year. Here in Georgia, the State created the first “Human Trafficking Prosecution Unit” to stop predators. We all must work together as a community to help eradicate human trafficking. We need to become vigilant in our cities and even in our neighborhoods. Furthermore, we can become involved by helping shelters with children human trafficking victims. Everyone must become part of the solution, let’s work together to stop human trafficking in Georgia and hopefully one day in the world.”
