14 girls rescued in Cambodia in one month

In May, 14 girls, ages 13 to 19, were rescued in Cambodia - the highest number of rescues in a month since lockdowns began in 2020.

Rescue and reintegration teams in Cambodia collaborate to rescue children from the sex industry.

Our training-on-the-job program provides safe jobs for survivors* after rescue. We pre-emptively line up these roles to enable survivors to leave the sex industry without being left financially vulnerable.

Learn more about this approach by reading Makara’s story, a survivor from Cambodia this year.

*Survivors younger than legal working age are enrolled in school while a family member receives job training.

98 rescued from brutal labor trafficking operation

The survivors, including eight children, had been trapped in a call scam center in Asia.

An international crime organization lured their victims with the false promise of a good job before locking them in a guarded compound and forcing them to work inhumane hours in a scam center.

The victims were confined, threatened and physically assaulted as they scammed victims for all they’re worth over time—a practice generally known as “pig butchering.” Some of the women were sexually abused.

Now, that nightmare is over. After helping free them, we aided local authorities in the repatriation process, ensuring the survivors returned home safely.
