Casina Pio IV, Vatican City —Ethics in Action convened at Casina Pio IV in Vatican City to discuss parts of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, or SDGs , which call for equal access to justice for all and the end of crimes against humanity. Most notable were talks on the global sex trade, modern slavery, human rights abuses on the Katanga Cobalt Supply Chain, and human and organ trafficking.
The Global Sex Trade and Human Trafficking “The global sex slavery market generates $32 billion in profits each year. In my own country, in the city of Atlanta, Georgia, the sex trade generates over $300 million a year, which is more revenue than the illegal drug and gun trade combined in the same city,” saidBlue Chip FoundationfounderJennifer Gross. “That figure is even more staggering when you learn that the average human is sold into slavery for less than $100, and 20 percent of the victims are sold by their own family due to poverty.”
