    The document discusses child trafficking, noting that 1.2 million children are trafficked worldwide each year for forced labor and sexual exploitation. Children are vulnerable targets because they are trusting, easily manipulated, less aware of their rights, and have less access to protection. Trafficked children often work in exploitative situations like commercial sex work, begging, factories, households, fishing/shrimp industries, and difficult agricultural labor. Trafficking has serious physical and psychological effects on victims. Efforts to address the problem include empowering children to speak out, partnering with authorities, improving access to education, and increasing parental responsibility.
