2. Salma is from India, and got married when she was 10 years. She said that within a year of her marriage she was raped by her father-in-law. She then ran away from her husband's home and took a 500km train journey from her village to Bombay. Once there, she was tricked by a pimp with offers of help. Drugged, she was then sold to a madam running a brothel in Bombay. During the year she spent in captivity, Salma says she was forced to have sex with hundreds of men. Recently she tested HIV positive. Article 34 of the Human Rights Convention says, governments will prevent, "... the exploitative use of children in prostitution or other unlawful sexual practices" The story of Salma

3. Commentary:Prostitution is something horrible, special, when people are forced to that. Anyway, Salma was a victim of her own family, and she had a sexual illness, that was unforgivable.

4. Wali is 12 years old. He is one of the thousands of Afghan refugees living in the border areas of Pakistan. The 11 September terror attacks in the United States and the US-led war on Afghanistan, which began in October 2001, intensified a humanitarian crisis caused by years of drought, famine and intolerance. Article 12 guarantees a "... child who is capable of forming his or her own views the right to express those views freely in all matters affecting the child...” The Story of Wali

5. Commentary: Wali cannot be blamed for being born in that family, in that country, and, in that situation. Children need some conditions, and Wali didn't have any one. He lived with fear and unhappiness. He was an unfortunate person. Made by: Andreia Miliciano nº 2 Ariana Brehm nº 5 Tatiana Almeida nº 24
