Women human rights defender, author and journalist, Lydia Cacho, has dedicated her career to investigating and exposing human trafficking, sexual violence and impunity. Through her shelter, El Centro Integral de Atención a las Mujeres, Cacho provides a safe space for survivors of trafficking, domestic violence and other forms of abuse and exploitation to access health, legal and other support services. Cacho’s work for human dignity and equality has been fraught with challenges—she has been raped, assaulted, harassed, kidnapped and received death threats. Yet, Cacho refuses to be silenced.
