<p>The demand for sexual exploitation is primary among other root causes of trafficking, such as poverty and women’s inequality.&nbsp; The demand consists of male buyers who buy women for commercial sexual exploitation.&nbsp;<br />
	<br />
	CATW Philippines has developed a signature project focused on educating young men about gender issues, the construction of masculinity and prostitution, and men’s role in both promoting and preventing sexual exploitation.&nbsp; The Coalition, together with the youth, has created a module and teaching materials highlighting the realities of gender discrimination.&nbsp; Such materials help facilitate male self-reflection on masculinity, especially the ways in which masculinist behavior leads to the abuse of women and the destructive behavior of men, towards redefining “real men.”&nbsp;<br />

	The project will consist of one education camp each for youth and student leaders in Visayas and in Mindanao.&nbsp; Your donation will transform young male leaders into advocates against sexual violence such as trafficking, as graduates are already doing – in the Philippines, Indonesia and India.</p>
