We, the Africa Faith and Justice Network-Nigeria, went to a school to speak to about 200 girls from grades 7-12 on how to avoid being trafficked. I told them that anyone could be a victim, and that the keyword is vigilance.
"Today, we declare that caring is the most powerful force for change, and we unite with survivors to care against trafficking," the organization said in a statement launching the campaign July 22.
In Paris and now Madrid, the fight against human trafficking has been my mission, working with women who are being exploited and raising awareness of this hidden reality in Europe.
As a representative of RENATE, I've committed myself to being the voice of victims of trafficking heard at the Council of Europe — a mission that reflects the charism of my congregation of Good Shepherd sisters.
