South Africa a human trafficking hub

[dArKeR]

"I am young -- but up here is old," says an 11-year-old girl working as a prostitute in Cape Town, pointing to her head -- one of many images in hard-hitting footage on the sex industry, screened at the opening of a conference on human trafficking in South Africa on Tuesday.

The three-day conference, "The Next Steps to Path Breaking Strategies in the Global Fight Against Sex Trafficking", is sponsored by a global coalition of non governmental organisations (NGOs) called the War Against Trafficking Alliance and the South African National Prosecuting Authority (NPA).

The gathering will help to compile the agenda of a national task team constituted to combat human trafficking in South Africa, and is the fifth follow-up of a world summit held in the United States last year.
