Coalition Against Trafficking in Women

The Coalition Against Trafficking in Women (CATW) is a global organization dedicated to combating human trafficking and the exploitation of women and children, particularly in the sex trade. Founded in 1988, CATW advocates for policies and practices that promote women's rights, empower victims, and raise awareness about the harms of trafficking. The coalition works with various stakeholders, including governments and non-profits, to create effective legal frameworks and support systems that protect vulnerable individuals and hold traffickers accountable. Ultimately, CATW seeks to end gender-based violence and create a safer, more just society for all.
