“I call on men around the world to lead by example: to make clear that violence against women is an act perpetrated by a coward, and that speaking up against

it is a badge of honour. I call on Member States around the world: the

responsibility, above all, lies with you. I call on all of you to pledge with me: United We Shall Succeed.” Statement by Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon

launching global campaign to end violence against women, 25 February 2008

“As unimaginable as it seems, slavery and Bondage still persist in the early 21st

Century. Millions of people around the world still suffer in silence in slave-like situations of forced labour and commercial sexual exploitation from which they cannot free themselves. Trafficking in persons is one of the greatest human rights

challenges of our time.”

June 2003
