The women in the CATW/EWL

The women in the CATW/EWL locally based projects combating prostitution and trafficking identified a need to gather together in one accessible document, ideas, research and arguments to support their work to prevent prostitution and trafficking. The CATW/EWL joint initiative decided to compile such a publication, which is this briefing handbook. This handbook may be used as a resource for any NGO or governmental group or authority that is interested in addressing the gaps in anti-trafficking programmes: the links between prostitution and trafficking, the importance of programmes and policies that are based on gender equality, the legal status of the sex industry, and the male demand for prostitution that promotes sex trafficking.
