Human Trafficking, Awareness Day in Canada, is a solemn occasion dedicated to shedding light on the pervasive and reprehensible issue of human trafficking within the country.

Observed annually on February 22nd, this day serves as a collective effort to raise awareness about the heinous crime of exploiting individuals for forced labour, sexual exploitation and other forms of modern-day slavery. Canadians unite on this day to educate themselves and others about the signs of human trafficking, its root causes and the importance of prevention. Various events, seminars and initiatives are organized across the nation to engage communities, empower survivors and encourage collaboration among law enforcement agencies, non-profit organizations and government bodies. By recognizing Human Trafficking Awareness Day,

Canadians reaffirm their commitment to eradicating this grave violation of human rights and fostering a society where every individual is free from exploitation.
