Today, February 8th, we celebrate the VI World Day of reflection and prayer against Human Trafficking, the day in which we commemorate the liturgical memory of St. Giuseppina Bakhita, a Sudanese nun who as an adolescent lived the tragic experience of being a victim of human trafficking . It is in her memory and on the proposal of a group of religious committed against trafficking, that Pope Francis instituted in 2015 the world day of reflection and prayer against the trafficking of persons.
