Another harrowing story. We must do more to stop this happening.
The current system is a failure. EI, including everyone of us, are in the best position to help victims like Anna.
My suggestions would be to have a more prominent link to the agencies set up to help, but this should be in many languages, as many victims don't speak English.
Ruhama, Gardá etc links should also be in many languages.
EI could produce a printable A4 pdf that punters can print off, and bring with them when visiting girls. If yo suspect the girl might be trafficked, just leave the sheet of paper on the bed when you are leaving....simple.
It would have a small paragraph,in the most likely languages, explaining that if they are escorting against their will, feel threatened etc, that safe help is available, giving contact details. If they can't speak English, they could hand this sheet of paper to the police, shop keeper, even a trustworthy looking stranger. It would say something like: I need urgent help..take me to the police now!"
EI, all of us can't keep our heads in the sand...
We need to be proactive, these girls are real, and on this site.
