Started May 6, 2024

Abstract or project description

Human trafficking, a global crisis, involves the exploitation of individuals through force, fraud, or coercion. This paper explores the multifaceted nature of human trafficking, delving into the psychological impact on victims, the motivations of traffickers, and the societal implications. It examines the factors contributing to vulnerability, the role of organised crime, and the legal and ethical challenges involved. The research question studied is to what extent do the socio-economic factors, cultural norms, and governance structures of specific regions influence the prevalence and nature of human trafficking, and what are the implications for targeted prevention and intervention strategies? Socio-economic disparities, cultural norms, and governance structures significantly influence the prevalence and nature of human trafficking. To effectively combat this issue, comprehensive strategies are needed to address root causes, protect vulnerable populations, and provide comprehensive support services to survivors. Additionally, the paper discusses strategies for prevention, intervention, and victim support, emphasising the importance of international cooperation and multidisciplinary approaches. By understanding the complexities of human trafficking, we can work towards developing effective solutions to combat this heinous crime.
