Nepal's Unseen Battle

Nepal's sex trafficking crisis ranks among the worst globally, with tens of thousands of children sold into sex work each year. These children are forced to serve from 3 to as much as 40 men per day. The average life expectancy of these girls and boys if not rescued is just 34 years.
