Consultation Feedback Process: What gave you hope?
• ‘The amount of information that came out. It gives confidence to go away and meet with the government and speak to the decision makers.’
• ‘Stop the Traffik gives hope.’
• ‘Starting from the grassroots to the top, if everyone is involved then there is hope.’
• ‘The drama was really good, it showed all the different faces of trafficking. It has been a silent kind of evil that people have used. The drama really had impact, words get forgotten but the drama stays with you. Really good to get children to pay attention. The drama made me so uncomfortable. The level of dehumanisation that people experience when being trafficked.’
• ‘I was really impressed with the Deputy Minister. Prostitution is hugely debated in SA - so to know that they are talking about this and they have personal opinions is really good.‘‘ • ‘The small group discussions gave me hope. People are doing a lot of things, they may be small but it gives me hope.’
• ‘The church is keen on stopping trafficking. I’m happy because it’s not only my church, it’s different churches. The church is a haven to the survivors.’
• ‘The conference gives me hope. The people are ignorant. I can share information with them.’
• ‘It’s made me think that I need to start in my home. There is not a lot of information in Tanzania so it is helpful for me to see that there is a lot of information out there.’
• ‘The subject is really distressing. We need time to process. The trip to Robben Island with the former Archbishop Ndungane, himself a former prisoner, will be a time to pray and reflection on oppression.’
