Sexual exploitation and trafficking of the young and vulnerable has devastating consequences for their physical and emotional development, health, and well-being. The horrific treatment they suffer bears the hallmarks of evil made manifest. Governments have enacted laws pursuant to international treaties, conventions, and protocols. Nonprofit and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) are working to prevent young people from being exploited and trafficked, to identify victims, and to provide services to survivors. Progress in addressing the problem is haltingly slow in relation to its magnitude. The prevalence and persistence of this phenomenon is an ethical, legal, and human rights disgrace.
对年轻弱势群体的性剥削和贩运对他们的身心发展、健康和幸福造成了毁灭性后果。他们遭受的可怕待遇尽显邪恶的特征。各国政府已根据国际条约、公约和议定书制定了法律。非营利组织和非政府组织正在努力防止年轻人受到剥削和贩运，识别受害者，并为幸存者提供服务。相对于问题的严重程度，解决这一问题的进展极其缓慢。这种现象的普遍存在和持续存在是一种道德、法律和人权的耻辱。
