Stopping Demand
It was great to catch up with Kiwi-International Jeff Fountain (Schuman Centre, Europe) last week in Auckland. Jeff was a keynote speaker at the 6th NZCN Christian Leaders Congress in 2011 and is registered for the 7th Congress later this week in the Bay of Islands, so it will provide another opportunity to talk face-to-face about recent developments aimed at reducing harm caused by the sex-trade.
A sea-change is taking place in the way Europeans view prostitution.
In an almost too-good-to-be-true-report, the European Parliament announced it will vote later this month on criminalising clients rather than the sex workers.
