‘‘What If Our Magazines Showed Modern Slavery?’’ (Mashable), Catapult Debuts Mock Mags For IWD, 3/8

Mashable calls Catapult.org's COVER STORIES campaign for International Women's Day, 3/8 "startling," asking "What if our magazines showed modern slavery?" Catapult's campaign uses the iconography of girls and women's magazines to shine a light on issues such as child marriage, human trafficking and child sexual exploitation -- with the aim to turn International Women's Day into more than just a cover story. Read Mashable's feature on Catapult, here.

Mock magazines and headlines like Child Bride's "Proposal Stories! 583 Tales of Rape, Acid Attacks, Kidnapping" andThirteen's "Boyfriend or Pimp? The Telltale Signs He's Selling You For Sex!" will connect the viewer to crowdfunding projects active on Catapult benefitting organizations working on the front lines to combat these issues.
