▼ Currently migration and migration related topics have a prominent place in the discipline of anthropology. Among a range of topics, anthropologists are involved in the study of such areas as migration and identities, religion, family and kinship, remittances, development, and hometown associations. The current study is one of such anthropological endeavors made to understand the ever increasing phenomenon of
human trafficking in Ethiopia.
Trafficking in persons is an illicit trade in living
human beings, where people are recruited in their country of origin and transported to destination countries for the purposes of different exploitations.
The research is conducted in Metema town, one of the prominent transit places in Ethiopia which used to traffic a significant number of Ethiopian migrants to the Sudan. Understanding the root causes of
trafficking, depicting the multifaceted challenges being faced by trafficked persons and writing an anthropological account of
human trafficking in Ethiopia were the major objectives of the study. To accomplish the above objectives the study collected primary and qualitative data from different informants in Metema town by employing such qualitative data collection techniques as an interview, focus group discussions and observation. A total number of 20 informants were participated in the study as informants.
Human trafficking is one form of migration, and migration is a response made by persons to cope up with different economic, socio-cultural, and political crises. The findings of the study showed that such economic condition as poverty and a desire to improve one‟s economic condition coupled with lack of employment and low payment for domestic works made many young Ethiopians to look for opportunities in a foreign land and to end up in
trafficking. Besides poor economic conditions the study also identifies and discuses other socio-cultural and politico-legal issues as causes of
trafficking in Ethiopia. Trafficked persons faced multifaceted problems not only in the destination counties, but also in the transit places and in the journey made to reach the destination country. The study also found out that trafficked persons experience different problems before reaching the destination country, the Sudan. In their way to the destination country trafficked persons are raped, beaten, abused, and ripped of their rights both in the transit town and in the desert route.

▼ M.A. University of Hawaii at Manoa 2011.
This study identified and compared common practices of public campaign strategies against human trafficking. It examined messages, visual images, and symbols in campaign posters. In this study I used two methods: content analysis of posters and interviews with representatives from anti-trafficking organizations. Content analysis was used to identify common messages, sub-themes, visual images, and symbols used in campaign materials. Interviews were conducted to explore similarities and differences among organizations in developing campaign strategies. Each organization has a unique strategy to raise awareness, to gain support and to raise fund from their various target audiences. The commonality that runs through these campaigns is a call to action to prevent human trafficking. The study also found that most campaign materials focus on sexual slavery and not forced labor. Finally, this study also identified an emphasis on the use of women and girls as the primary victims. That emphasis prevents a more comprehensive understanding that also should include men and boys.

Trafficking in persons for the removal of organs in India: exploring the impact of economic, social, and cultural factors on vulnerability and protection.

▼ This dissertation explores how influences on the individual, family, community, and governmental level impact susceptibility to trafficking in persons for the removal of organs (TPRO) in India. Two of the research questions examine specifically what impacts vulnerability and protection among a sample of 43 individuals living in a community in India. The third research question explores the role of the living organ donor assessment process in the prevention of trafficking.
In this dissertation, the theoretical understanding of how choices are made, or not made, particularly by vulnerable individuals, is explored. Qualitative interviews were conducted with persons trafficked for organ removal and persons not trafficked for organ removal who are living within the same socio-economic environment, but who were not all trafficked for organ removal. Study data were analyzed using constructivist grounded theory methods. Findings from this study show that economic, cultural, and social influences affect both protection from and susceptibility to trafficking. It was found that resources, government response to poverty, motivations, and the utilization of the body as an economic tool all influence trafficking status. Additionally, it was found that cultural and social influences included gender, family dynamics, awareness and community information sharing, and organ sale broker presence. Furthermore, trafficked persons secure government approval for organ removal through broker facilitation and the donor assessment often fails to protect against of persons for organs. Findings reveal that family pacts against organ sales, knowledge of negative consequences of transplant, and protect individuals from being trafficked for an organ.
For those who were trafficked, it was found that the combination of poverty, coupled with the presence of organ brokers who work within an inadequate donor assessment system t created an environment where poverty originated organ removal (POOR) occurs. Both trafficked and non-trafficked individuals utilized their bodies in the way that they could to survive or meet financial obligations, as the environment requires it. This structurally coercive environment leads to trafficking of individuals for organ removal through the abuse of the individual’s vulnerability. This research provides macro to micro level recommendations for the elimination of TPRO through preventative programs and policies, as well as highlights the need for assistance for trafficked persons.

Defining Success in Anti-Trafficking Policy: An Analysis of the U.S. State Departments Criteria for Combating Human Trafficking.

▼ Victims of
human trafficking may be exploited for prostitution, sweatshop labor, domestic work, and as child soldiers for armed conflicts. According to the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services, "after drug dealing,
human trafficking is tied with the illegal arms industry as the second largest criminal industry in the world today, and it is the fastest growing, with an annual profit of $32 billion" (U.S Department of Health and
Human Services, 2004). This thesis looks at policies that are in place to prevent, prosecute and protect against
human trafficking in ten countries from around the world that have changed to Tier 1 countries according to the U.S. State Department's annual
Trafficking In Persons report. This study analyzed if there were trends in what kind of policies were implemented by state's governments that allowed them to be credited with a Tier 1 ranking, as well as, compared policies that were in place the year before the state changed Tier rankings. The data showed no definite trend in what it took to become ranked as a Tier 1 country, however the majority of the countries data showed that as long as improvements were made from the previous year then that country would move to a higher ranking. This research demonstrates that the TIP report does not consistently rank countries using the same standards. However, it proves that the shaming and global pressure through sanctions that the United States puts on other countries through the annual publishing of the TIP report does make a positive difference when it comes to countries working to combat
human trafficking.

▼ Globalization has enhanced the interconnectedness and interdependence of states. No state can solely depend on itself, globalization as a phenomenon however has both positive and negative sides. One of such negatives is the intensification of transnational crimes such as human trafficking. Human trafficking poses serious threats to developing countries like Ghana. This study therefore examines the security implications of human trafficking in African countries using Ghana as a case study. The study also examines some of the measures that have been adopted by successive governments and civil societies to fight human trafficking in Ghana and the challenges faced in the fight against the menace. Analysis of both primary and secondary data shows that human trafficking has very serious security implications for the individual and the state. Human trafficking specifically for the purpose of sexual exploitation leads to the spread of diseases such as HIV/AIDS. Human trafficking is also associated with other serious crimes such as terrorism, money laundering and drug trafficking. The study further reveals that Ghana has put in place measures in the form of laws and institutions to alleviate human trafficking. Despite these efforts, the work further reveals that the fight against human trafficking has been marred with some challenges that frustrate the efforts of the various stakeholders in countering the activity in Ghana.

▼ Despite the vast amount of effort and resources directed at altering human trafficking, this criminal activity continues to flourish in our global society. Individuals and communities are being destroyed by this illicit global industry that just like a disease is affecting every nation and country. This study presents and highlights a conceptual framework to consider the complicated legal, social and economic factors of human trafficking. This thesis analyzes in depth the legal aspect of trafficking in persons in Albania, and how weak legislation and ineffective government interventions have the tendency to promote such illegal activity. It provides an analysis of domestic and international law implemented to alter such activity and discusses why they remain ineffective when confronted with this phenomenon. Utilizing an ethical-philosophical approach, this study explores essential concepts such as; legislation, social and political philosophies and economy, which need to be taken into consideration when we discuss the complex topic of human trafficking. Interviews with various participants have further reinforced this conceptual framework that human trafficking in Albania is a result of a combination of many factors.

▼ This thesis addresses how to combat the offence of human trafficking, with particular emphasis on the development of trafficked victims' rights, their protection and traffickers' convictions. The study analysed legal responses to human trafficking at three levels: international, regional, and national; identifying it as a threefold phenomenon, involving criminal law and human rights. The main purpose was to critically analyse United Arab Emirates legislation against the offence of trafficking, and compare it with United Kingdom legislation. The study comprises five chapters, proceeding from the general background of the phenomenon to the modification of the framework for convicting traffickers in the UAE system. The actual application of criminal law relating to the trafficking offence in the UAE and UK was investigated through case law, as was the protection extended to victims of trafficking. From the literature review, it was discovered that human trafficking is a multi-faceted problem; thus, a comprehensive approach to tackle it is needed. The thesis concludes that, although the UAE and UK have adopted/amended their anti-trafficking legislation, they have yet to create an effective protection framework for its victims. In particular, UAE law fails to convict those who commit the trafficking offence in the period before the exploitation has taken place. This thesis calls for an amendment to UAE law, moving toward development of the conviction issue, by adopting the principle of presumed exploitation or the principle of probable (belief) exploitation.

▼ This qualitative study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Missouri Sheriff's Association Victim Advocacy Program in rehabilitating
human trafficking survivors. The conceptual framework for this study includes betrayal trauma theory and, more specifically, institutional betrayal. Betrayal trauma theory expounds on the posttraumatic effects of trauma on persons when betrayal occurs in an attachment relationship; the concept of institutional betrayal builds on this theory and outlines the significance of an institution betraying an individual who trusts or depends upon that institution just as they would another person (Parnitzke, Smith, and Freyd, 2014). Data collected from the one-on-one interviews will provide a more thorough understanding of
human trafficking survivors and will be coded for consistencies and emerging themes in terms of trauma, betrayal, and after care. The aftermath survivors experience will be examined through the lens of institutional betrayal, specifically focusing on the services provided by the Victim Advocacy Program. This data will increase understanding of
human trafficking, the impact of secondary trauma of betrayal, and why effective after care services are crucial.

▼ This dissertation uses discourse theory to understand anti-trafficking activism. A very specific discourse called Human Trafficking Discourse (HTD) depicts the problem of human trafficking as primarily sex trafficking and narrows the victims to women and children. This narrowing is due to an epistemic bedrock of patriarchal gender ideals which infuse the way activists, policy makers and the general public communicate about human trafficking. By first analyzing a series of speeches at the United Nations, I show how HTD is used strategically by international feminists as well as other high level policy makers. HTD, and discourse more generally, is not only words, however, so I follow HTD into a safe house for trafficked women where HTD disappears. Instead, the house relies on a discourse of Commercial Sexual Exploitation (CSE) linked with Catholicism and poverty management strategies. Like HTD, CSE relies on the same bedrock of traditional gender ideals. This reliance on traditional gender does not fit the reality of residents' lives, however. HTD, while it disappears in the house, reappears when the development committee seeks funding from the general public to maintain the house. HTD is highly present at the first gala the committee planned, and the presence of former residents of the house at the gala negated the tropes upon which HTD relies. Additionally, the founders themselves struggle against the money-making potential of HTD and remaining true to their project based on CSE. I conclude with three points. Though I originally asserted that HTD narrows "the victim" to women and children as distinct categories, based on my observations at the House's gala, in reality I find that HTD narrows "victims" to young, childlike women. Second, HTD should not be a strategy for feminist activism aimed at supporting trafficked women or women in sex work. Last, the concept of episteme is woefully under-utilized in discourse theory. It is through greater understanding of shared epistemic roots of various, sometimes seemingly contradictory discourses, that the power relations of society can be better identified, analyzed and altered.

▼ In November of 2000, Canada proclaimed its commitment to prevent, suppress and punish those involved in the
trafficking of persons. This research focuses on Canada-based inter-agency anti-
trafficking coalitions who focus on responding to
human trafficking. Data was collected in the form of a participant-observation study at a three-day conference held in South-western Ontario during the summer of 2015, where seven presentations were provided from four Ontario community coalitions and three provincial approaches from Western Canada regarding their approach to respond to
human trafficking. A thematic analysis was conducted to examine each coalition’s approach in responding to
human trafficking, with a particular focus on their work against sex
trafficking. The secondary goal of this analysis was to compare the approaches used at the community versus provincial levels in Canada. The findings of this research demonstrate that through valued partnerships, Ontario community coalitions work to protect
trafficking victims, prevent further instances of
trafficking and prosecute traffickers. Lastly, this research demonstrated that community coalitions and provincial models are largely complimentary when responding to
human trafficking. In addition to these findings, this research provides a conceptual framework for evaluating community and provincial anti-
trafficking approaches to respond to
human trafficking.

▼ Recognized as the third largest criminal industry in the world,
human trafficking of children is one of the most profitable illegal businesses worldwide. For decades, efforts to stop this form of modern-day slavery have concentrated on apprehending perpetrators rather than understanding the social and psychological needs of the victims. Using a mixed methods design, this study proposes to portray the phenomenon of
human trafficking by exploring child
human trafficking in Chile from an ecological theory framework. The primary methods used in this formative study were in depth semi-structured interviews with experts who have worked with child victims of
human trafficking and other at risk children in Chile, observations of five Chilean cities (Santiago de Chile, Valparaiso, San Antonio, Coquimbo and La Serena) where the vulnerable children were located, and questionnaires to directors of child victim centers from these five cities to assess demographic characteristics and other risk factors of children vulnerable to
human trafficking. Results shows that the most important factors were sexual abuse history (73%), maltreatment and neglect (70%; 68%), running away from home, lack of awareness by Chilean institutions, transgenerational vulnerability and chaotic family dynamics.

▼ Human trafficking for the purpose of organ removal, known to be an obscure and uncommon form of
trafficking in persons, has since become a popular phenomenon across various countries of the world. The crime is recognized in the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish
Trafficking in Persons, especially women and children, which supplements the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime. A reason for the inclusion of this form of
trafficking in this particular international instrument on transnational organized crime is because most forms of
trafficking, and more particularly
human trafficking for the purpose of organ removal, as well as organ
trafficking are generally perpetrated by transnational organized criminal groups. This dissertation seeks to consider the crime in detail, from a
human right-based approach. This approach acknowledges that
trafficking in all its forms, is a violation of
human rights and seeks to depart from the common debates surrounding the spread of organ
trafficking over the years. A large proportion of these debates have attributed the shortage of organs to the spread of the organ black market and organ
trafficking in general. These debates have therefore focused on addressing the shortage of organs by developing systems to promote altruistic donation of organs. Even though there is an international recognition and admittance of the fact that
human trafficking for the purpose of organ removal constitutes a serious
human right abuse, there is still a wide gap in the body of research that focuses on the
human right abuses involved in this type of
human trafficking, and the need to protect and promote the rights of victim-donors. The aforementioned gap will serve as the crux of this dissertation as efforts will be made to address the inherent
human rights abuses that victim-donors face. This dissertation will begin by introducing the crime of
human trafficking through a brief historical overview. It will then proceed to give a background information on
human trafficking for the purpose of organ removal. Subsequent chapters will address in detail the trends and patterns of the crime, the modus operandi of organ traffickers, the role players in organ
trafficking networks, the consequences of the crime on the victims involved, the inherent
human right violations promoted through the continuous perpetration of the crime of
human trafficking for the purpose of organ removal, and the responses that have been given to curbing the crime from different international, regional and national institutions. Case studies will be examined to buttress the facts and findings of the entire dissertation.

▼ The purpose of this thesis was to examine and assess justice system efforts in combating
human trafficking; more specifically sex
trafficking. The goal was to understand how efforts of combating
human trafficking started, how they progressed, and to explore where efforts remain at this time. Additionally, the goal was to identify and understand what is working in law enforcement,
human trafficking courts, and policy. This included identifying issues such as disparity in law enforcement reporting, lack of recognition of sex
trafficking, and outdated policies. To assess these issues, this project utilized
human trafficking data available through the FBI Uniform Crime Report (UCR), including
human trafficking arrests and clearance rates, as well as reported tip data from the National
Human Trafficking Hotline (NHTH) between the years of 2015-2018. Additionally, this analysis incorporated Polaris Project’s report card scores on the quality of criminal record relief laws addressing adult sex
trafficking survivors. The four years of data were analyzed to identify relationships between law enforcement arrests and NHTH reporting, as well as to assess whether or not there was a relationship in clearance rates and the quality of criminal record relief laws. An important finding included identifying that there is a positive moderate to strong relationship between NHTH reporting and law enforcement arrests, indicating that there is a likelihood that law enforcement recognition and awareness is improving. Another important finding includes a considerable issue in lack of data reported within
human trafficking courts where there is an inability to assess the effect they may have on clearance rates. Criminal record relief laws appear to have no relationship with clearance rates, leaving open questions regarding how many survivors are left with a criminal record from sex
trafficking victimization. This tells us that there is much more work needed to be done to improve justice system responses in figuring out strategically where resources need to be allocated to improve coverage as well as identifying ways to improve a more centralized form of reporting for
human trafficking data.

This thesis investigates how survivors of human trafficking reflect upon their lived experiences, contextualised within their life narratives. Adapting the Grounded Theory approach to qualitative research, I conducted semi - structured interviews with 12 survivors in Australia and Singapore (Strauss & Corbin, 1998). My results suggest that a unique constellation of pre-trafficking factors contribute to survivors' vulnerability and encapsulation. This in turn has psychological consequences that impact the strategies survivors' employ to exit their trafficking context. Post - trafficking experiences are characterised by the transition from systemic dependence to resettlement with ongoing consequences for their psychological wellbeing. My findings and theory help to fill large gaps in the literature and drive recommendations for service provision, interventions, legislation and further research.

▼ In 2005, Ghana domesticated the provisions of the United Nation’s “Protocol to Prevent, Suppress
and Punish Trafficking in Persons, especially Women and Children” also known as the Palermo
Protocol through the enactment of the Human Trafficking Act, 2005 (Act 694). Consequently,
other laws were enacted to further align the provisions of Act 694 to the Palermo Protocol. Despite
the efforts of the state to enforce these laws, trafficking in persons persists. The study therefore
sought to examine the anti-child trafficking measures between 2005 and 2019 to explore in detail
the reasons why child trafficking in Ghana remains undefeated. The theoretical framework on
which the theory was premised was the compliance theory. The study which depended on both
primary and secondary sources of data is purely qualitative. From the findings, the study concluded
that the measures instituted to enforce the laws on preventing child trafficking have been efficient.
The general challenge however, was highlighted as the inadequacy of funds. Specifically, the
hindrances to the efficient implementation of strategies to prevent trafficking include deep-seated
cultural practices and the lack of capacity of law enforcement officers. The impediments to
adequately enforcing the provisions of the laws on protection include the lack of logistics to aid
the process of reintegrating rescued victims while the delay in the court system which constrains
victims to give up the hope of prosecution are other the identified hindrances to curbing the
menace. The study, therefore, recommends the institution of effective monitoring and evaluation
procedures to track all funds dispensed by the state. The proper structuring of sensitisation
programmes on preventing child trafficking, the establishment of more state shelters and the
establishment of courts solely for trying human trafficking cases are recommended to effectively
tackle the menace in Ghana.

▼ Sex
trafficking is a public health concern affecting
approximately 4.5 million victims each year (International Labor
Office, 2012). Despite the pervasiveness of sex
trafficking, many
people still hold false beliefs about the topic. Endorsement of
false beliefs may lead to failure to identify victims and victim
blaming (Cunningham & Cromer, 2014). A variety of educational
trainings are available for professionals and community members to
learn more about sex
trafficking. The goals of such trainings are
to reduce the endorsement of common myths about
trafficking, and to
increase identification of victims and reporting of suspicions to
authorities. Trainings are provided in a variety of formats such
as: facts-only (Polaris Project, 2012), stories-only (Equality Now,
2014), and combined facts and stories (Department of Homeland
Security, 2018). However, there is little literature investigating
the efficacy of sex
trafficking educational trainings. In the
current study, 268 participants were recruited nationwide using
Amazon Mechanical Turk. Participants completed several
questionnaires online as a pre-training assessment. Variables
assessed included: myth endorsement, self-reported and actual
knowledge, identification of sex
trafficking scenarios, reactions
to sex
trafficking scenarios, and willingness to engage in
behaviors to combat
trafficking. Next, participants were randomly
assigned to complete one of three trainings (i.e., facts-only,
stories-only, combination) to learn about sex
trafficking. One week
later, participants completed the same questionnaires online as a
post-training assessment. Participants were most satisfied with the
facts-only training. Participants showed improvements in myth
endorsement, perceived and actual knowledge, identification of sex
trafficking, risk sensitivity to sex
trafficking scenarios, victim
blaming, decision to report sex
trafficking scenarios to
authorities, perceptions of sex
trafficking as a major problem,
willingness to engage in prosocial behaviors to combat sex
trafficking, and likelihood to engage in behaviors to intervene in
a situation where sex
trafficking was suspected. Explanations for
the findings and directions for future research and practice are
discussed.

▼ This study examined and analysed
human trafficking as a
security issue using South Africa and Mozambique as country case
studies. Information gathered through documentary analysis
methodology is relied upon to develop a conceptual framework of
human trafficking and security. The link between
trafficking and
security is evaluated based on the conceptualisation of
trafficking
in the Palermo Protocol as well as the criteria for declaring
social phenomena security threats, as articulated by the UN and
several scholars. Through global and national overviews of
human
trafficking, its patterns, extent and enabling conditions are
identified and analysed. In South Africa and Mozambique,
human
trafficking has domestic and international dimensions and is
facilitated by several factors. However, factors facilitating
domestic
trafficking do not necessarily facilitate international
trafficking in South Africa. The opposite is however, the case in
the Mozambican context. An analysis of global, regional, and
national counter
trafficking measures, shows that the national
security implications of
human trafficking are not explicitly
addressed.
Trafficking involves national border violations;
organised crime; corruption, and physical violence which have
implications for security at all levels. Consequently,
recommendations are made for the explicit securitisation of
trafficking as well as the demonstration of sufficient political
will to combat it. Regional and international co-operation is also
considered necessary to combat
trafficking, as well as prosecution
of offenders and the introduction of poverty alleviating
measures.

▼ This research is aimed at evaluating the adequacy and effectiveness of the legal framework dealing with
human trafficking in South Africa. To achieve this purpose, a comprehensive diachronic as well as contemporary overview of the punishment and prevention of
human trafficking in South Africa as well as in the legal systems of the US, Germany and Nigeria is provided. An overview of the history of slavery and an analysis of the modern conceptualisation of
human trafficking indicate that
human trafficking is a highly complex concept, and that there are various approaches to the understanding of the concept of
human trafficking. There are various definitions of
trafficking found in international instruments of which the most important has been identified as that contained in the Palermo Protocol. The definitions vary also because
trafficking is closely related to the phenomena of migration, slavery and smuggling of humans. The study further identifies
some significant root causes of
trafficking generally, as well as specific, to the four selected regions. It was found that in South Africa – similar to the history of slavery in the jurisdictions of the US, Germany and Nigeria – colonisation and the institution of slavery and, more particularly in South Africa, the legacy of the apartheid regime has had an impact on modern
human trafficking. The research concedes that although common-law crimes, statutes and transitional legislation can be utilized to challenge some
trafficking elements, these offences are not comprehensive enough to amply deal with the crime’s complexities and provide only a fragmented approach to combating the crime. The study shows that South Africa needs to adopt specific and comprehensive anti-
trafficking legislation that is based essentially on the provisions of the Palermo Protocol, that is, the draft TIP Bill. Although the Bill is a major improvement on the provisions in the Palermo Protocol as well as on
certain aspects of the anti-
trafficking legislation in the US, Germany and Nigeria, the Bill can still be improved, especially with regard to more effective victim assistance and the combating of local-specific vulnerability factors. Anti-
trafficking efforts undertaken in the US, Germany and Nigeria which may be of value also for the adoption of anti-
trafficking legislation, law enforcement and other strategies in South Africa, are further identified. iv The research further establishes also that international, regional and sub-regional instruments on
trafficking and related aspects of
trafficking provide guidelines for developing effective strategies to deal with
trafficking within the region. The counter-
trafficking strategies as found in treaties (including conventions), protocols, declarations and resolutions – those focussing specifically on combating
trafficking and those with a
human-rights focus – oblige states to prosecute traffickers, protect people vulnerable to
trafficking as well as those already trafficked and create structures for prevention. Regional instruments specifically…

▼ In the late 1990s, the United States started pressuring other countries to combat human trafficking. Since 2001, the State Department has been evaluating the anti-trafficking efforts of governments around the world. The analysis is published annually in the Trafficking in Persons (TIP) Report, which has become the cornerstone of U.S. foreign policy on this issue. Governments whose efforts are deemed "insignificant" may be subject to economic and diplomatic sanctions by the U.S. government. Through analysis of media coverage, government proceedings, and interviews with select stakeholders, this study explores the ways in which the U.S. system of unilateral pressure influenced the anti-trafficking policies of Israel, the Philippines, and Thailand.; Findings show that, for U.S. anti-trafficking pressure to be successful, it had to be combined with pressure "from below" by civil society organizations. These organizations leveraged U.S. pressure to further their own agenda vis-à-vis their governments. This study further reveals that the domestic policymaking process is highly susceptible to pressure by other countries, particularly during the agenda setting phase. Specifically, the U.S. TIP Report has a demonstrated capability to forcibly open policy windows, to act as a policy transfer agent, and to generally accelerate the socialization of states into compliance with international norms. However, U.S. pressure also has unintended consequences, particularly in the form of anti-trafficking policies that violate human rights and harm the people they purport to protect.

▼ Human trafficking often affects people who are marginalised, disadvantaged, isolated, unprotected or in desperate situations. Disempowerment, social and political exclusion and economic vulnerability are results of policies and practices that marginalize groups of people and make them particularly vulnerable to being trafficked. Natural disasters, conflict and political turmoil weaken already tenuous protection measures. However, individuals are vulnerable to being trafficked not only because of conditions in their countries of origin. The allure of opportunity, the relentless demand for cheap and inexpensive goods and services and the expectation of reliable income also play a role in driving people into potentially risky situations where they can be exposed to
human trafficking and exploitation.
Conflict creates a unique set of vulnerability factors that must be addressed in any discussion on the issue of
human trafficking in conflict situations. The disruption of community life, along with its protective framework, and the resulting displacement create extreme vulnerability to
human trafficking and exploitation.
Trafficking in conflict situations is a
subject on which little research has been done, and which is seldom addressed in counter-
trafficking initiatives. Significantly, the proliferation of conflicts around the world, from the Middle East, South East Asia to Africa, which largely affect civilians and result in unprecedented numbers of displaced people and refugees, thus,
human trafficking and exploitation would appear as unintended consequences. In conflict settings such as the Union of Burma1,
human trafficking flourishes. Therefore, failure to realise and address these issues can result in the permanent entrenchment of this phenomenon. Accordingly, this research aims to build insights into the nexus between conflict and
human trafficking to stakeholders involved in counter-
trafficking, so that they can put forward and develop solutions best suited to the conditions in conflict situations. The study explores the relationship between armed conflict and
human trafficking using the Union of Burma as a case study.

▼ Human trafficking impacts sufferers on a global scale with serious and lifelong health issues associated with the illegal practice. Interventions for these victims’ extensive health issues must ignite healthcare staff education and expert clinical interventions. Due to these health problems, healthcare staff function on the front lines to identify and help trafficked persons. This study focused on the scope of trafficking and health staff awareness, identification strategies to help recognize trafficked persons, techniques for interviewing, best practice strategies for intervention and referral, and new coding guidelines. During the intervention, health staff received a human trafficking pre-education questionnaire, a research supported education training intervention, and a post-intervention questionnaire. Data on post-education intervention referrals was also completed to discern impact of education on trafficking recognition and resource support. Qualities examined for ease and efficacy included the education intervention strategy, utilization of resource support, reported issues with trafficking recognition, and increase or decrease of staff confidence within interactions. Questionnaire results demonstrated increases for questions one through four following the educational intervention. Post-intervention data showed some recognition of potential human trafficking persons particularly related to mental health. Project results were consistent with other research recommendations. Continued human trafficking encounters in health systems necessitates continued research into best education, interviewing, intervention, and post-care methods.

▼ Although the exploitation of people has existed for
centuries,
human trafficking has only recently emerged as an
offense that merits special legal intervention. This recognition is
due, in part, to a growing movement that has labeled
trafficking as
a social problem that requires a collective response. Despite
efforts to better understand and prevent these crimes, the
clandestine nature of
human trafficking makes it difficult to
measure and draw a reliable portrait of offenders and their
victims. In this respect, scientific research on this topic is
limited. Thus, the purpose of this dissertation is to use an
innovative method to expand knowledge about the nature of
human
trafficking in the United States.The current dissertation applies
content analysis methods to create a rich database that informs
characteristics on victims, offenders, and offenses. To facilitate
this goal,
human trafficking incidents from 32 independent
newspapers, located in 22 of the largest cities across the United
States, were reviewed from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2016.
Identified cases that reported an arrest, conviction, or sentencing
for a
trafficking-related crime were then subjected to supplemental
searches to gather all publicly available information on these
events. Seven domains were recorded and analyzed: (1) identifiers;
(2) newspaper details; (3) locations of cases; (4) nature of the
crime; (5) victim characteristics; (6) offender characteristics;
and (7) trial characteristics and offender outcomes. Using these
methods, 361 cases were identified and coded for the final
analysis. There were 303 sex
trafficking cases, 39 labor
trafficking cases, and 19 sex-and-labor
trafficking cases.The
analysis illuminated clear patterns regarding sex and labor
trafficking offenses. In particular, sex
trafficking cases tended
to involve
trafficking offenses without any smuggling component,
domestic victims, and relatively few victims per case. Reports
about sex traffickers suggested that they were in their early
adulthood when they were first arrested for their crimes. A
majority of sex traffickers were also Black or Hispanic and U.S.
citizens. The victims of sex
trafficking were relatively young and
often Hispanic. The duration of sex
trafficking was approximately
six months. Labor
trafficking, however, tended to involve smuggling
and
trafficking offenses, foreign national victims, and a large
number of victims per case. Labor traffickers were in their early
40s and were frequently Hispanic or Asian. Many traffickers were
also foreign nationals. The victims of labor
trafficking were
commonly adults in their 20s and Asian; they were often trafficked
for more than two years.Taken together, these findings revealed
that
trafficking offenses were characterized by unique patterns.
The results were then contextualized within existing opportunity
models (lifestyle-routine activities theory and target congruence
theory) to explain
trafficking events. Although both frameworks
were informative, the target congruence perspective could be
especially…

▼ Illegal‟ migration of youth to the Arab countries has become a common phenomenon for
most households in Ethiopia. Research emphasizing on aspects of migration in Ethiopia has
focused on economic and political issues; particularly the problem of youth unemployment are
recursively pointed out as the major reasons behind migration. However, this cannot be reliable
explanation for immigration of Ethiopians to the Middle East unless the causes of migration are
thoroughly investigated. In the absence of detailed explanations of migration, it would have been
erroneous to generalize the motive of youth for immigration. Thus, this cross-sectional research
with the objective of revealing causes of youth immigration, engage at exploring the roles of
family members and friends in youth‟s immigration decision. The study participants of this
research are eight forced returnee youth from Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), eight family
members and three key informants from Kebele 03 Administration and Wore-Illu Technical and
Vocational Education and Training (TVET) College. Findings of this research indicate that
intersection of multiple stressors: poverty, harmful traditional practices, family breakdown and
being a member of reconstituted family, pressure of family members and friends, feelings of
inferiority and desire of independence made youth vulnerable for illegal immigration. The
finding unearths the roles of family members and friends at four operational phases of migration
which are in the pre-migration phase, on the journey, at the destination country and on return. At
the end, the study recommends that all concerned bodies working to curb the incidence of illegal
immigration need to focus at micro and mezzo level intervention.

▼ The way in which the concept 'human trafficking' has been constructed in the UK (in the words and actions of law enforcement bodies, state-funded NGOs and courts, for example) has changed significantly since the early 2000s. Yet legal and policy definitions of trafficking have remained largely consistent. This is surprising if we expect the state, through instruments like legislation and policy statements, to authoritatively define particular concepts and categories in a way that then shapes how others think and act. This did not happen - at least not straightforwardly - in the case of trafficking. What, then, was the state's contribution to the construction of 'human trafficking' in the UK? To answer that question, this thesis explores the three most significant state interventions relating to trafficking: a 2007 policy statement, a 2009 set of administrative rules and a 2015 piece of legislation. Each had different characteristics and was used in a different way. I argue that the state used these instruments not to authoritatively define 'human trafficking' but to shape already existing or incipient ideas and assumptions about trafficking. The state collated, codified and legitimised certain configurations of ideas and assumptions through the three instruments discussed. To place the state's activities in context, the thesis also investigates how the state first came to recognise 'human trafficking' as an issue and what influence the concepts and categories shaped by the state went on to have. The former is addressed through identifying the ideas and assumptions that fed into the state's early efforts and tracing their historical development. The latter is addressed through examining the ways in which actors who are engaged in implementing the concepts and categories shaped by the state have had to adapt their ideas and practices in order to do so.

▼ The U.S. is a leading destination country for foreign-born victims of
human trafficking for the purpose of sexual and labor exploitation. The
Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA) of 2000 established the T-visa in order to annually certify 5,000 international victims, making them eligible for services afforded to refugees such as access to housing, medical, social, legal, and vocational services. However, the certification status and access to such services are contingent upon a victim agreeing to support investigations, testify against their trafficker, and assist with the prosecution process. Despite the estimated 17,500 international victims trafficked annually, roughly 2,300 total T-visas had been granted in the first 10 years of the TVPA. In 2005, the largest international sex
trafficking case in U.S. history happened in Houston, TX. Latino traffickers forced over one hundred foreign-born Latinas into the sex trade in cantinas that cater to a Latino clientele. In U.S. cities with the highest rates of international sex
trafficking, Latinas have the highest incidence and prevalence. Yet persistent gaps between estimated and actual numbers of victims identified reflect a flawed identification process. An explanation of the nuances involved in getting services to Latina victims of international sex
trafficking demonstrates the different ways in which proper identification and assistance is necessary in helping to restore victims. This study explores the perceptions and experiences of international sex
trafficking of Latinas as told by its various stakeholders in order to assess their impact on identifying and assisting victims. Narrative interviews were conducted with male customers who frequented cantinas where victims were rescued, law enforcement, legal, and social service providers who have identified Latina victims, and victims themselves. The dissertation is a three-manuscript dissertation and the three papers explore the disconnect all stakeholders feel about the role of men in Latino sex networks; the Experiences of Social Service Providers in Victim Identification and Service Provision for Latinas Trafficked for Sex in Houston and Los Angeles; and Latina Victims’ Experience of Sex
Trafficking in Houston’s Latino Sex Networks. A more comprehensive process of victim identification is necessary in the fight against
human trafficking.

▼ The core intent of this study is to learn about the challenges faced by women survivors of sex
trafficking in Nepal after their return. The study has attempted to answer questions about challenges survivors face, how they cope with the challenges, and resources available to these women to cope with the trauma and move ahead in life. In doing so, the study first considers demand and supply theory examining the influences of patriarchy, structural violence, the feminization of poverty and the social practices that support sex
trafficking. The study also considers basic needs theory, increased opportunities to empower women, enhance participation and ensure their basic
human rights. Despite all the hardships, survivors’ determination to rise from the ashes demonstrates courage and resilience. Throughout the study, empowerment is recognised as the driving force for these women to survive and thrive post-return. Economic independence, family’s love and acceptance, support and care from non-governmental organizations, and breaking silence regarding the ordeal these women survive foster empowerment. The study stresses the need to increase public awareness about sex
trafficking in order to enable a respectful and dignified environment for the survivors. Survivors and NGO workers’ insight and experiences emphasize that for plans and policies to work effectively, the government bodies should work hand in hand with non-governmental organizations and increase the involvement of survivors throughout the reintegration process.

▼ The purpose of this research was to address the issue of trafficking for sexual exploitation by using macro-quantitative analysis to identify the characteristics of source and destination countries, and by studying the micro-level context in which human trafficking emerges.
In the macro-quantitative component of the study, data on a range of variables were compiled from national indicator databases developed by intergovernmental organizations, such as the United Nations, the World Bank, and similar agencies. The trafficking status of each country was determined based on ratings developed by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (2006) through content analysis of third sources. Data were analyzed separately for source and for destination country status using logistic regression analysis as well as different visual representations of the data.
For the micro-level component, an in-depth case study that focused on Bosnia and Herzegovina, a country identified as a destination for trafficking for sexual exploitation, was conducted, using various sources of data. Interviews with representatives of numerous agencies, governmental and non-governmental, (total N = 25) were conducted. Furthermore, databases (MIMOSA database, and Counter Trafficking Module Database) developed by the International Organization for Migration that contain data on victims identified in Bosnia and Herzegovina were used. Finally, information from various reports complemented the findings. All this information was used to understand why this country has become a destination for trafficking for sexual exploitation. Further, who traffickers and pimps are, how victims are recruited and exploited, how responses to trafficking affect the trafficking problem, and how macro-level variables translate into behaviors at the micro-level were explored as well.
Results of the macro-quantitative analysis indicate that low GDP and negative Population Growth were good predictors of a county’s status as a source country, while country’s status as an immigration country and high Human Development Indicators Index values were associated with country’s status as a destination country. The case study revealed that very complex economic, social, and political processes contributed to the emergence of trafficking in Bosnia and Herzegovina, partly as a result of the war and post war economy, indicating that simple economic explanations are insufficient in explaining human trafficking.

Spring 2011
In this study, I compare two major metropolitan port cities within the United States, in regard to their unique issues with the worldwide problem of
human trafficking for the purpose of commercial sexual exploitation. The two cities are Seattle, Washington, (Seattle) and San Francisco, California (San Francisco). I chose these particular cities because they provide an interesting and relevant comparison of two major West Coast ports with similar ideologies and urban profiles. In order to provide this comparison, I conducted several interviews???both in person and over the phone???and carried out extensive research regarding both cities??? approaches to combating
human trafficking. Ultimately, this study suggests that while both Seattle and San Francisco have attempted to adopt similar approaches to fighting the problem of
human trafficking for the purpose of commercial sexual exploitation, the specific methodologies implemented
by the city of Seattle have ultimately resulted in greater success. While neither city???s approach is perfect, it would appear that San Francisco has a larger battle to overcome, due in part to past experiences with cases involving
human trafficking.

▼ Despite its long pre-existence, the issue of human trafficking (especially for sexual purposes) has become the epicentre of attention since the closing of the past century. The globe-wide attempt of politicians, academics, practitioners, technocrats, activists, and journalists to define, advocate, measure, and ‘control’ people trafficking has brought to the fore particular (re)actions. One such example is the EU and international law that aim to facilitate the legal framework within which national administrations should embark upon to ‘better deal’ with human trafficking. While EU and international law can only go so far as to lay the theoretical basis that signatory states must follow for dealing with human trafficking, ultimately, planning and implementing public policy become the prerogative of the individual state. In light of this, the central contribution of this study is the exploration of the application of EU and international law in concern with human trafficking within the Cypriot context. In other words, how EU and international law on human trafficking are applied in day-to-day interactions between state employees, civil groups, and trafficked women. For this purpose, the study examines the interpretation and application of the local legislation by the criminal justice agencies as well as the local NGOs. Notably, such undertakings are informed by past and present geopolitical and socio-economic developments that have been taking place since the British colonisation of Cyprus. Research findings (based on ethnographic fieldwork and documentary study), demonstrate that EU’s attempt to enforce legislative cohesion, common policies, and harmonised practices over the issue of human trafficking across its Member States is yet to materialise. The case of Cyprus, and at times of other EU States, are used as a paradigm in which both, the EU acquis and international law fail to impose legal prescriptions on national authorities. To illustrate, the dimensions of prevention, detection, identification, prosecution, and adjudication of human trafficking, as well as trafficking victims’ protection, rehabilitation, and repatriation are explored in piecemeal and they all testify of systemic deviations from EU and international guidelines. Both Cypriot public services and local NGOs assigned to handle human trafficking are not in a position to bear the standards laid out by the EU and the CoE. Consequently, victims of trafficking are often predisposed to adverse conditions and as a result, they are often undertreated. Moreover, it is often the case that law on paper—both EU and Cypriot— and law in practice are diametrically different.
