We Are CCARHT - Klaus Vanhoutte

In 2014 Vanhoutte focused on the loverboys and teen pimps. In human trafficking, people mistakenly think only of prostitutes who are s*xually exploited. 56 percent of the victims that Payoke takes care of men, in barely 33 percent of cases it is about s*xual exploitation. Equally important is economic exploitation. Thinking of Chinese people who are locked up in small rooms and have to work 16 hours a day in a restaurant. Or Nigerian prostitutes who are being pressured by their pimps with voodoo.
“In recent years we have seen the focus of the police and the judiciary on trafficking in human beings decrease. Terrorism and smuggling became the top priority. However, more money is earned worldwide with human trafficking than with drugs, only arms trafficking yields even more money, says Klaus Vanhoutte.
He became the became deputy director of the non-profit organization Payoke in March 2017 and recently succeeded Patsy Sörensen as director.

We Are CCARHT - Arun Dohle

Arun Dohle (b. 1973) was adopted by a German couple from an Indian orphanage. Like many adoptees, he started to search for his roots in his late teens. The Indian orphanage did not want to provide access to his file. Arun addressed the Indian Courts and it took 17 years to finally obtain access to the desired information. That´s how he learned that adoption is not about what is “good” for children, but rather protects the interests of adoption agencies, adoptive parents, and other vested interests.
