from C-FAM,
8/2/24:

C-Fam, along with the Philippine Mission to the United Nations and the group Exodus Cry hosted a conference on the connection between pornography and human trafficking. The conference provided more information on this topic than the UN has ever seen.

Anti-trafficking advocates and a sexual abuse survivor spoke to a UN conference calling on the international community to recognize the negative impact of sex trafficking and warn against the “unmistakable link” between sex trafficking and pornography.

While some influential UN bodies support the full decriminalization of prostitution and promote its recognition as a legitimate form of labor, the Philippines Mission to the UN, Exodus Cry, and C-Fam (publisher of Friday Fax) hosted a UN side event linking the pornography industry with the increase in demand for the sexual exploitation of women and girls.
