Human trafficking is the fastest growing crime in history. Next to arms and drugs, also the most profitable. There are 27 million people sold across borders into slavery today. 50% of the victims are minors, roughly 80% are girls and women. That’s about twice the combined population of London and New York. Experts say it would take 25 years to end human trafficking and slavery. But only if we join forces. We have to reverse history!

Art.273 is offender-oriented. We want to shift the focus from the victim to the perpetrator. Prosecution should be focused on the conduct of trafficking and exploitation, not on how ‘brutal’ the trafficker has been on the victim. Anyone robbing a bank gets prosecuted for robbing the bank, no matter the profit. Anyone trafficking another person should be prosecuted likewise.

Francisco José Aguilar-UrbinaAmbassador of Costa Rica / Former chairman UN Human Rights committeeThe phenomenon of human trafficking plagues today’s world. By fighting this, Art.273 proves a worthy tool in the struggle for human dignity.
Simon MinksProsecutor at the Appeals Court The HagueThe crime of human trafficking, a person being sold for another man’s profit, is a flagrant violation of human rights and should be eliminated from our society. That is why I prosecute.
Art.273 is a network of people sold out for the cause against Human Trafficking.
Together, our network touches media, politics and marketing. We are professionals who work underneath the surface of decision making and media-influence. Our goal is to find unique ways to bring the conduct of human trafficking to the attention of our society.
We seek partnerships with authorities, influencers, bankers, filmmakers, TV personalities, churchleaders, ambassadors, government officials & NGO’s on human rights.
