Lightup Norway sheds light on human trafficking, sexual exploitation and pornography

We are young people rising up for a world where every person lives free from human trafficking and sexual exploitation.

Lightup shares knowledge on human trafficking and sexual exploitation through arranging workshops and seminars, being present on social media, participating in public and political debates, and providing young people a platform where they themselves can engage in efforts to prevent human trafficking. Through employing their own creative ways, through their ideas, talents and skills, young people can shine a light on issues related to human trafficking. They can spread knowledge and awareness to their friends, families, schools and the like, create local teams, exercise political influence, and carry out workshops and seminars about human trafficking and sexual exploitation.

Our vision is a world where every person lives free from human trafficking and exploitation - because people are priceless.
Lightup exists to address the structural causes for human trafficking, and the work we do is rooted in human rights education, through mobilization of young people with the goal of creating lasting and positive changes locally, nationally and globally.

Lightup is behind the project Pornoprat.no and the website myRights.no.


An international movement

Lightup is an international youth movement, consisting of independent democratic national organizations who are both politically and religiously neutral. We are now based in Germany, Austria and Norway. On a national level, our work is organized by our national boards with our yearly meeting as the chief decision-making body. On the international level, strategy work and international cooperation on common projects are coordinated by the appointed International Leadership Team.

In Norway, Lightup is the only youth organization whose main focus is prevention of human trafficking. In 2018, Lightup Norway changed its name from Freethem Norge to Lightup Norway.
