Contexto
According to the organization, the trafficking of women and girls for sexual exploitation doesn’t just involve commercial exploitation, but also gender exploitation, which reflects the scenario of structural inequality in Brazilian society. That scenario includes class, gender and race dominations. The Rio de Janeiro metropolitan region has suffered transformations due to mega-projects and events, which has accentuated the commercialization of cities and the fragility of public services. In this context, adolescents and youth become even more vulnerable to sexual exploitation and other forms of violence.
