Human trafficking is a subject that few acknowledge as a part of European society. In this talk, Irene Hirzel offers data on European countries and explains the factors that lead to this sad reality. With this information, citizens are more empowered to help create change for those abused. Irene Hirzel is now project leader at COM, fighting against human trafficking of women and children, particularly in Eastern Europe and Nepal. She is also a member of the Swiss–Romanian group against human trafficking, led by the Federal Department of Justice and Police.
 This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
