in Call + Respond Project to Combat Global Sex Slave Industry on ETC: Everyday Thoughts Collected
Most of the propaganda re "sex slaves" comes from moralistic organisations quite happy to ignore the existence of migrant sex workers and to override sex workers' human rights to further their own political agenda. For more balanced information, see organisations like Empower, or the DSMC, or e.g.

Laying Aside the fact that I don't think it's right to label prostitution as a "human right":
The links you've provided do not address sex *slavery.* They address voluntary prostitution. Call+Response (and other "moralistic organisations") are attempting to combat the kidnapping, enslavement, and consequent use and abuse by the global sex industry of young women and children, usually taken out of extreme poverty in the third world for the pleasure of rich westerners. They are not working in brothels voluntarily. They are not allowed to insist that their customers use condoms. They are often purposefully addicted to drugs by their captors or otherwise prevented from leaving via physiological means (like slitting and achilles tendon). They often are underage, sometimes far underage. And of course: they are SLAVES.
But, Focus on the Family, that awful, moralistic organization, opposes sex slavery, so sex slavery must be ok.

Personally I am glad for moralistic organizations that are out to stop child sexual abuse.
