Action email/letter highlighted - Forced prostitution and sex trafficking of women and girls in Rohingya refugee camps in Bangladesh

• Amnesty Germany is running a campaign which urges the Government of Bangladesh to take precautions to stop trafficking and harassment against women. It also asks that access to education and work opportunities for girls and women is ensured. The lack of access to work and education has led to the increase in human trafficking, child marriage and forced marriage, sexual exploitation and forced labour.
