  • 16 year old girl crying (middle) after her mother (R) invited me to photograph her in her room that she also uses to receive customers as a prostitute. The room is in a slam behind "the building", a run-down appartment block occupied by squatters. When she was 13 she was raped by a Khmer man and a bit after that she started taking customers as a prostitute. Virginity is still considered very important for a Cambodian woman, making it very difficult for her to get married to a Khmer man after loosing it. One year ago she also started taking crystal meth, a drug that is comonly used by prostitutes in Phnom Penh because it helps them stay awake the nights they go to bars to pick up foreign customers. The drug also makes her look deranged and over-emotional. .On the left, a neigbor woman that also works part time as a prostitute.

  • Rady (18) at a rehabilitation center of an NGO that deals with raped and sexually trafficked children. Rady was born in a refugee camp in Thailand and grew up with her father and her step mother together with their 6 other children. When she was around 14 her family returned to Cambodia to live in very pure conditions in villages in Kompong Thom and Banteay Meanchey provinces. When she was 15 and a half she was working in a bakery shop to help her family but the shop closed and she was left without a job. Poverty in combination with her father's alcoholism and her step-mother's gambling, created many conflicts between them and Rady and that made her feel unwanted. She then decided to leave secretly for Phnom Penh where she was planning to meet one aunt who she was hoping could help her find a job. On arrival in Phnom Penh, she discovered that she had lost her aunt's phone number and she started searching for her with the help of a moto-taxi driver. She couldn't find her and after spending a night with the driver's family she went to the river-front where as she was wandering by herself a Moslem woman approached her and offered to help her find a job. Rady followed her and the woman sold her to a brothel that was at "the building", a run-down appartment block occupied by squatters. At that time Rady didn't even know what a brothel was. There Rady's virginity was sold to a Japanese man. After that Rady stayed at the brothel for one and a half month but she wouldn't receive any more clients because she became sick and was constantly vomiting. The owner of the brothel didn't want to let her go because she had payed money to buy her, but eventually she did when Rady asked for help form a visiting NGO person who was distributing condoms there. Rady spent 2 years at that NGO and when she left to go back to her family, the NGO helped her start her own business by providing her with a machine with which she could produce juice from sugarcane. The business went well until she

Refugees arriving on beaches near Molyvos village in Lesvos island. Thousands of them come from Turkey, crossing the sea border on inflatable dinghy boats, on a dangerous trip that has claimed many lives. Local people or NGOs expect them and help them in some places but after their arrival, most of them have to walk to the nearest village where they can hope for a places on busses that can take them to the city of Mytilene where they can register and eventually board on a ferry to Athens. Many decide to walk the distance as the busses aren’t enough to accommodate the large number of people that arrive daily.

  • Vat Sarom (16) in a rehabilitation center of an NGO that deals with raped and sexually trafficked children. About one and a half year ago Sarom was living in a village bordering Thailand with her family. Her father had just had an accident stepping on a mine and her mother was pregnant, when a trafficker offered to help her get a job as a waitress at a restaurant in Siem Reap. She left her village and on the way the trafficker lied to her and instead brought her to Banteay Manchey province where she made her stay in a hotel, promising her that after that they would go to Siem Reap. There the woman trafficker sold her virginity to a man and forced her to stay with an other man for 3 nights. After that, instead of bringing her to Siem Reap, she sold her to a brothel at the village Sasda on the Thai border. There Sarom was locked in and forced to take 8-10 customers every night. To keep her awake and cheerful, the brother owner gave her drugs. These made her not wanting to eat or sleep and she was feeling happy without thinking any more. She was taking the drug every 3 days with the money she made of her tips. There were 14 girls in the brothel but only she and one more girl were underaged. She was afraid to escape because the owner of the brothel belonged to the military police and when some girls managed to escape, they were quickly caught and badly beaten when they were brought back. Eventually she managed to contact a relative of hers by borrowing a phone from a client and this way the operation for her rescuing started. On March 2007 and after she had spent 8 months in the brothel, the combination of a court decision, police pressure and the efforts of the NGO made the brothel owner release her. .Since then she is in the rehabilitation center, happy to be rescued but also very sad that all this happened, blaming herself for following the trafficker. She is trying to forget but she can not and instead she escapes in to her music, any music that she can hear from he
