International Day of No Prostitution is a day set aside all over the world to promote awareness and advocacy against the act of prostitution. It is a day to educate people of all ages about what prostitution is, its effects on individuals, families, and communities, and why it should not be condoned or legalized.
Imagine you have a toy that you really love and enjoy playing with. Now picture someone else taking that toy and using it without your permission. That will make you feel sad, angry, and perhaps violated. It's the same thing that happens when people engage in prostitution. They are being used as toys by others without their consent.
Prostitution is when someone sells their body to another person for money or other things. This is not a good thing to do because it can be dangerous and harmful. People who engage in prostitution may be hurt physically, emotionally, or mentally. They may also become addicted to drugs, alcohol, or even become homeless.
International Day of No Prostitution is a day when individuals and organizations come together to say "no" to prostitution. We want to let people know that they are valuable and deserve to be treated with respect and dignity. This day is about promoting education and awareness of the harms of prostitution and working towards finding solutions to end it.
