Influencing Positive Change
Part of what we do at KairosWWT is raise awareness on the issues faced by women who are at risk of or have experienced sexual exploitation. Signing a petition is one way we can help raise awareness and try to influence positive change and anyone can sign a petition to show their support. A petition on the UK Government and Parliament site that gets 10,000 signatures gets a response from the government. At 100,000 signatures the petition on the UK Government and Parliament site will be considered for a debate in Parliament.
Here are some petitions below that you may be interested in learning about and signing:
