Ricky Martin Joins Campaign to
Stop Human Trafficking
World-famous Puerto Rican pop
singer Ricky Martin and Costa
Rican President Oscar Arias
Sanchez launched Tuesday a
campaign aimed at combating
human smuggling.
A message from Ricky Martin is
at the center of the six-month
TV and radio campaign, "Llama y
Vive" ("Call and Live").
It will provide information and
highlight a new 24-hour
telephone hotline to operate
throughout Central American
countries to alert potential
victims of trafficking and
protect children and young
people.
The International Organization
for Migration joined forces with
the Ricky Martin Foundation in
May 2006 to highlight the
problem of human trafficking.
The Inter American Development
Bank and UNICEF are also
partners in the campaign.
