Shed No Tears

Advocating for the voiceless, Unseen Stories fights for sustainable change and restoration of justice for the victims of child trafficking in Benin, Africa.  Shed No Tears is a firsthand account of the stories of trafficked children, their parents, aide workers, and former traffickers.

Children as young as three years old are forced into hard labor, exploited, beaten, malnourished Â– robbed of their childhood.

At the age of four, Ruphine was trafficked by her father to work as a domestic servant, subjected to physical abuse and malnourishment. Though unable to attend school, Ruphine never waivered in her desire for an education.

BertinÂ’s mother could not afford to feed her children, so she sought the help of a well-known trafficker. Luc, BertinÂ’s trafficker, promised opportunity, money, and a quick return home. Instead, Bertin was traded like merchandise from one owner to the next, beaten, forced to work without pay, and unable to return home freely.

Nearly three decades ago, in the village of VantÃ©, Chief WhÃ©noukpo desired a better life for his daughter, Zenabou. He allowed a trafficker to take her based on the promise that a business would be started on her behalf. Unknown to Chief WhÃ©noukpo, Zenabou was trafficked to Gabon where she worked as a domestic servant for twelve years. Chief WhÃ©noukpo searched for his daughter for over a decade. Desperate to find and be reunited with her, the Chief swore, Â“She will come back!Â”
