"Some things cost more than you realize."

MTV EXIT is a campaign about freedom - about our rights as human beings to choose where we live, where we work, who our friends are, and who we love. Most of us take these freedoms for granted, but hundreds of thousands of people throughout the world have had these basic human rights taken away. They are victims of trafficking - modern-day slaves - and criminals have forced, defrauded, or coerced them into various forms of labor, or prostitution.The UN International Labor Organization estimates that worldwide about 2.5 million people are victims of trafficking.
Over half of these people are in Asia and the Pacific.
Criminals earn an estimated US$10 billion every year through buying and selling human beings.
MTV EXIT aims to increase awareness and prevention of human trafficking through television programs, online content, live events, and partnerships with anti-trafficking organizations.
