Child human trafficking is a horrifying reality that continues to plague various countries, including Zimbabwe and South Africa. The recent case involving two Zimbabwean citizens arrested with 14 undocumented minors highlights the appalling conditions these children are subjected to, including malnourishment and lack of basic necessities. Community involvement played a pivotal role in their welltimed intervention and rescue. These incidents underscore the urgent need to bolster legal, institutional, and community responses to this matter and serve as a call to courage for everyone to take action in protecting vulnerable children.
