World Without Exploitation

The mission of World Without Exploitation (WorldWE) is to challenge and change the policies and systems that perpetuate the commodification of people. We focus on solutions that address the underlying causes that contribute to sexual exploitation.

World Without Exploitation (WorldWE) is organized and operated exclusively for charitable and educational purposes within the meaning of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Our primary purpose is to prevent and reduce sexual exploitation by educating the public, policymakers, and institutions about the root causes and systemic drivers of exploitation; promoting survivor-informed solutions; and advancing evidence-based policy reforms that protect vulnerable individuals and strengthen accountability.

WorldWE seeks to address the structural factors that contribute to exploitation, including gaps in public policy, insufficient survivor support systems, and social norms that enable the commercial sexual exploitation of adults and minors.

Activities

WorldWE carries out its exempt purpose through the following core activities:

• Public Education and Awareness

WorldWE develops and disseminates educational materials, research summaries, webinars, public forums, and media resources to inform the public about the realities and root causes of sexual exploitation. These efforts aim to increase awareness, reduce stigma toward survivors, and promote prevention-oriented solutions.

• Survivor Leadership and Engagement

WorldWE supports survivor leadership through structured advisory groups, training opportunities, and public speaking engagements. Survivor leaders help inform public education efforts and contribute lived expertise to policy discussions. These activities elevate survivor perspectives and ensure that advocacy and educational efforts reflect informed, experience-based insight.

• Policy Research and Reform Efforts

WorldWE conducts research, analyzes existing laws and policies, and develops policy recommendations designed to reduce exploitation and improve survivor protections. The organization educates policymakers and the public about evidence-based reforms. Where appropriate, WorldWE may engage in limited lobbying activities consistent with Section 501(c)(3) regulations.

• Coalition Building and Convenings

WorldWE convenes nonprofit organizations, survivor leaders, researchers, and other stakeholders through large-scale conferences, working groups, and collaborative initiatives to share best practices, coordinate strategies, and strengthen the collective response to exploitation.

• Resource Development and Information Sharing

WorldWE curates and distributes informational toolkits, policy analyses, and educational resources to organizations and individuals working to prevent exploitation, thereby strengthening community-based and national responses.
