Zoƫ presents video to highlight work of The Esther Benjamins Trust

23 March 2015 23:11

Zoƫ is the presenter of a new short film, which was recorded in December, about the work of The Esther Benjamins Trust in Nepal. The film, set at a London primary school, contrasts the experiences of children in the UK with their poorer counterparts in Nepal.

As Zoƫ explains during the film, in Nepal 'desperately poor parents sell their children on the promise of a dream of a better life'. However, that dream is not realised; instead the children are trafficked into India, where they face lives of 'virtual slavery'.

The film makes clear that The Esther Benjamins Trust's work in Nepali communities is crucial. The charity works to rescue and support Nepali children who are victims of trafficking, as well as aiming to prevent further instances of trafficking. Moreover, it helps to improve schools, etc. in the region to secure children's futures.

'One of the most effective ways to stop [the children] being trafficked again Ā– and to save their younger sisters and brothers from the same fate,' Zoe emphasises, 'is to keep them safe in school'.
