This work comments on child trafficking and the exploitation of children – both drastic violations of human rights, which destroy their innocence and potential. It is estimated that about 1.2 million children fall victim to human trafficking each year (International Labour Organisation, 2002). Are governments and non-governmental organisations doing enough to reduce these numbers?
