Factbook on Global Sexual Exploitation
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
The Factbook on Global Sexual Exploitation was
compiled from media, non-governmental organization
and government reports.
It is an initial effort to collect facts, statistics and
known cases on global sexual exploitation.
Information is organized into four categories:
Trafficking, Prostitution, Pornography, and Organized
and Institutionalized Sexual Exploitation and Violence.
Sources were not contacted to verify information.
Close examination will reveal that there are contradictions
in information depending on the sources of information
(ex: how many women are in prostitution in Thailand).
All statistics are reported with no attempt to evaluate
which numbers are more likely to be accurate.
In fact, the exact numbers in many cases are not known
and estimates come from different sources which use
different methods to determine what they report.
We hope these facts will assist people to recognize the
harm caused throughout the world by sexual violence and
exploitation and catalyze action against this violence agianst women.
This project was made possible with the support of the
College of Arts and Sciences, University of Rhode Island
and the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (NORAD), Norway.
