Notes on Human Trafficking

·        Human trafficking is the transportation of people illegal from one place to another

·        Thousands of men and women are trafficked every year, including children

·        Most of these people who are trafficked are women and children

·        These women and children are tricked and sometimes forced to do labor

·        Most of the people being trafficked are abused and have no rights.

o   They could be held against their will and become a slave

·        Force is usually used

·        Abduction is another way

·        Abuse of power of vulnerability

·        Use threats

·        Forcing women into sexual servitude will give more money to the one controlling the women.

·        Because a country is poor, they must rely on bringing others to the country to do work in order to pay.

·        These people have no rights.

·        Giving micro loans to developing countries will help these countries from having to rely on trafficked people.

·        Malnutrition or poor hygiene

·        Sexually transmitted disease

·        Signs of rape or abuse

·        Bruises or other untreated medical problems

·        Critical illnesses

·        Post-traumatic stress or any psychological disorders
