    • Caption Sara (21) was six when she complained that someone close to the family was interfering with her, but it wasn't until she was ten that she was heard. The last available study, conducted in 1994, indicated that 23 percent of girls and 15 percent of boys under the age of 17 in Spain had been sexually abused. Most abused children will never speak of their experience. As an adult survivor, Sara believes that disclosing her personal story will contribute to the prevention of future child sex abuse.

People suffering post-war trauma live alongside those with a range of other mental disabilities in a handful of psychiatric hospitals.

    • Caption Two young women about be trafficked wait for a juju ritual to be performed on them. Thousands of Nigerian women are trafficked to Europe every year and forced to work in the sex industry. Having entered countries illegally, they are pushed to the periphery of society and have little access to social care. They remain in financial debt to their traffickers, and are also controlled by juju, a voodoo ritual whereby an oath of loyalty is pledged between a god, the trafficker and the woman.
