Abstract
Sex trafficking is a social problem that affects every country in the world. The demand for sex workers is growing and it is becoming increasingly easier to traffic women and children within and across borders throughout the world. This study examines the socialization of men towards sex within societies that influences this increase in demand for sex-slave trafficking and has brought forth possibilities in which social workers might work to prevent the occurrence of sex trafficking. It highlights these possibilities in the three levels of practice within social work: micro, mezzo, and macro. Emphasis is placed on what has been done to address the demand as well as what needs to be further focused on.
