The ongoing war in Ukraine has tragically fueled an increase in sex trafficking, with traffickers exploiting the chaos and vulnerability caused by the conflict. As RENATE Member Natalia Holynska, Anti-Trafficking Programme Manager at Caritas Ukraine, highlights, traffickers are targeting those most at risk, preying on their desperation for survival.

Our colleagues on the ground are working relentlessly to combat this horrific exploitation and provide support to those in need. Learn more about their vital work and the ongoing fight against trafficking in Ukraine by reading the article here.
