China: Avoiding Exploitation

Go with You: Helping young Chinese women move away from village to city

As China’s economy expands, hundreds of millions of people have moved from rural villages to China’s coastal cities.

It’s the largest human migration in the world’s history.

Young rural women often fare the worst. They lack the education, economic skills, and legal protections that could help them avoid exploitation.
