Trafficking in human beings is an age-old phenomenon that has taken hold since the 1990s, prompting the United Nations to adopt a Protocol to prevent, combat, and punish it in 2000. According to UNODC estimates, trafficking in human beings is the third most profitable business on the world scale following drug and arms trafficking. This is a crime that is difficult to detect and reaches the most vulnerable sections of society. Most of the victims are women and children, being trafficked for forced labor and sexual exploitation. Trafficking for sexual exploitation is more prevalent in Europe, Central Asia and the Americas. Combined with prostitution, sexual exploitation constitutes a serious crime against human dignity. Within the activity it is difficult to see which women do it voluntarily and those who act under duress. In Portugal, the O Ninho Association seeks to know the environment and help women in situations of prostitution, whether voluntary or involuntary. Located in Lisbon, the institution offers psychological support, workshops to work and a home where they can live and eat. These services are essential to prepare women for a "normal" life, that is, it is a training for integration in society and in the labor market. In addition to these services, both the prostitutional intervention team and the call center act directly in the places where the women are. The present report is the result of the internship held at the O Ninho Association to study the phenomenon of trafficking in women for sexual exploitation in Portugal: This stage allowed to know the prostitution in the region of Lisbon the main nationalities in the streets and apartments, to identify the routes of tracing the profile of the victims and knowing the work developed by the institution.
