It's hard not to think about water today. In the western world, we face growing concerns about our stewardship of the world's most precious resource. There's talk of shortages, evidence of reservoirs and aquifers drying up, and of course, plenty of people who simply don't care.

But forget about us.

Most of us have never really been thirsty. We've never had to leave our houses and walk 5 miles to fetch water. We simply turn on the tap, and water comes out. Clean. Yet there are a billion people on the planet who don't have clean water.
It's hard to imagine what a billion people looks like really, but one in eight might be easier. One in eight people in our world don't have access to the most basic of human needs. Something we can't imagine

Mi Sun: A Life In Sex Trafficking

North Koreans do not willingly become separated, enslaved, imprisoned, hungry, exploited, trafficked, abandoned, silenced. Hidden. Everyone should be given a chance to live a life free of these.

And you can provide a way out.
By committing $1 for each of these lives, you are helping us provide better options and a chance to tell each of their stories to the world.

Join the campaign today and see $9 a month change lives.

How is LiNK doing this? Through our:

* Movement program, which speaks out and advocates for those who are imprisoned in camps, enslaved in forced labor in various countries, exploited through child labor, or silenced without basic freedoms.
* Underground program, which feeds and protects refugees who must stay hidden from authorities or traffickers, and provides a home for abandoned children.
* Transition program, which resettles, rehabilitates and reunites refugees in safe, third nations that will provide them with asylum.

Not For Sale Animation

The Not For Sale Campaign equips and mobilizes Smart Activists to deploy innovative solutions to re-abolish slavery in their own backyards and across the globe.

Together, we can end slavery in our lifetime.
Open Source Activism

The major obstacle that we face in the fight against modern-day slavery is that the crime is hidden. Individuals that work in the field know that slavery is not part of the current collective consciousness. Initially, it shocks the general public to learn that slavery still exists and is widespread. It is even more shocking for them to realize that it may exist in their own backyards.

We need to shift to a paradigm that recognizes the possibility of slavery in order to be able to identify it. When the paradigm shifts, a new wave of activists will respond in creative ways. That being the case, the pioneer generation of activists against human trafficking must re-evaluate how we communicate the issue to our networks.

The Challenge For Africa

The troubles of Africa today are severe and wide-ranging. Yet media coverage is either completely absent or lacking complexity, offering only oversimplified portraits of poverty, dependence, and desperation. The continent is more dynamic and its problems more intricate than that, blocked by bottlenecks at the international, national and individual levels. Nobel Peace Prize laureate Wangari Maathai-founder of the Green Belt Movement, author of The Challenge for Africa and longtime environmental and democracy advocate-visits Zócalo to offer her unique vision of Africa, and of why Africans need a moral revolution if they are to save their continent. Talk to her about her perspective and what Americans need to know in order to help.
