Miss World Guyana finalist seeks to raise human trafficking awareness

Believing that human trafficking is being “swept under the carpet,” Miss World Guyana finalist Treasure James has decided to create awareness.

James, who is representing Cuyuni/Mazaruni in the pageant, chose to organise a dance that was performed by a flash mob at the Giftland Mall last Sunday together with a group of other young supporters. The idea, she said, is “young people can be involved in a very fun way.”

She told Stabroek News that based on research she had done, human trafficking is a very serious issue in Guyana but no one seems to be paying attention.
