ORF-"Feierabend" on the Topic of Forced Prostitution

On Easter Monday, 719,000 people (30% of the market share) watched the report entitled "Neu anfangen" (Starting Over) on the topic of forced prostitution created by Katrin Mackowski for the ORF-series "Feierabend".For years, Sister Patricia Erber has dedicated herself to stopping the trafficking of women and forced prostitution. In Austria, under the umbrella of the association SOLWODI (Solidarity with women in distress), she has created an organization to protect exploited women, sending a clear statement against trafficking in women, violence and the daily violation of human dignity. It is estimated that at least 880,000 people in Europe live and work under slave-like conditions, 76 percent of them as prostitutes.
