toils under the hot sun, making bricks from morning to night, seven days a
week. She was trafficked with her entire family from Bihar, one of the
poorest and most underdeveloped states in India, and sold to the owner of a
brick-making factory. With no means of escape, and unable to speak the local
language, the family is isolated and lives in terrible conditions. [photo by Kay Chernush

Human trafficking
involves the use of force, fraud, or coercion to enslave a person. Sometimes
traffickers use a bond, or debt, to keep a person trapped. Many workers
around the world fall victim to debt bondage when they assume a debt as part
of their employment, or inherit debt in more traditional systems of bonded
labor. Especially in South Asia, people can be trapped in debt bondage from
generation to generation. [photo by

Carpet weavers
like this family are usually Dalits or
"Untouchables," the lowest caste in South Asian society. In many
instances, the children are helping a family member, or someone else in their
village who has fallen into debt. An offer is made to place a loom in their
hut so they can pay off their debt, but this only ensures their enslavement,
sometimes for generations. [photo by

Before being
rescued by an Indian non-governmental organization affiliated with Free the Slaves,
most of these children were forced to work on carpet or sari looms from
morning to night. Some were bonded and some were born to bonded laborers who
had received an "advance" against their birth. Initially fearful
and withdrawn, the children have blossomed in the protected environment of
this special school. [photo by Kay Chernush for the U.S. State Department] www.gtipphotos.state.gov/gtip.cfm?galleryID=563&id=7 [accessed 29 May

Young men sew
beads and sequins in intricate patterns onto saris and shawls at a "zari" workshop in Mumbai, India. The boys, who
arrive by train from impoverished villages across India, often work from six
in the morning until two in the morning the next day. Some sleep on the floor
of the workshop. If they make the smallest mistake, they might be beaten. All
say they work to send money back to their families, but some employers are
known to withhold their meager pay.

Street kids,
runaways, or children living in poverty can fall under the control of
traffickers who force them into begging rings. Children are sometimes
intentionally disfigured to attract more money from passersby. Victims of
organized begging rings are often beaten or injured if they don't bring in
enough money. They are also vulnerable to sexual abuse. [photo by Kay Chernush

This brothel
keeper and her slaves are in a red-light district in Mumbai, India. The women
and girls used in prostitution may be exploited 10 to 40 times a night,
sometimes keeping as little as 20 rupees (less than 50 cents) per encounter.
The Madam takes the biggest cut for herself, then pays the landlord, the
pimps, and her "protectors." Government corruption is one of the
driving factors behind the burgeoning trade in human beings. [photo by Kay Chernush
