What is UNHRC?
A UN committee responsible for promoting and protecting human rights worldwide through discussions,
investigations, and recommendations.
TOPIC:
The Impact of War on Human and Child Trafficking
Wars are breeding grounds for predators of human and child trafficking. As wars continue taking place,
the ramifications worsen. Wars create an unstable country with less protection thus enabling predators
to get away with horrific crimes. The vulnerability and exploitation of humans, especially children,
heightened during wars. Children are put in danger, and are led to do inhumane actions against their
will. The physical and psychological effects trafficking has on a person is damaging and irreversible.
This complex issue has been going on for far too long. The delegates should unite to solve these
horrific issues and save the men, women, and children.
