Slavery, the worst form of treating human being did not end with abolition in the 19th century. Slavery continues today and harms people in every country in the world. Women forced into prostitution, people forced to work in farms, domestic work and factories. Children in sweatshops producing goods sold globally to the modern citizens. Girls forced to marry older men or working at locked areas for long days to arrange dowry for the bridegroom.
