In December 2018, Sophie Otiende, a Program Consultant with HAART Kenya, visited Prerana to understand the functioning of the organization and its various programs.<\/p>

HAART or Awareness Against Human Trafficking (https:\/\/haartkenya.org\/<\/a>) is a non-governmental organization based in Nairobi, Kenya. It is the only organization in the country that works exclusively on eradicating human trafficking.<\/p>

When Sophie, along with Yasmin Manji, a Clinical Psychologist with HAART Kenya, visited Prerana, the two organizations exchanged ideas and learnings based on their years of ground work and research.<\/p>

As we talked to her about the state of trafficking in Kenya in particular and across the nations in general, Sophie felt that any policy at a global level would only fructify if the issue of trafficking is
successfully identified and addressed at a local and regional level.<\/p>

Here are the excerpts from her interview with Prerana. Read\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
