HUMAN TRAFFICKING ASSIGNMENT
The most recent [2023] US State Department Trafficking in Persons [TIP] Report includes the nations with a documented “policy or pattern” of human trafficking. [available at https://www.state.gov/reports/2023-trafficking-in-persons-report/].
Using this US State Department report, select three 3-Tier nations from three different regions: Africa; East Asia & Pacific; Europe; Near East; South and Central Asia; Western Hemisphere.
Describe the human trafficking issues and experiences in the nations that you have selected [child soldier, sex trafficking, human slavery].
Identify the international, regional, and sub-regional GOVERNMENTAL organizations that are operating to combat human trafficking.
Identify any NGOs that are in operation in that nation addressing the issues of human/sex trafficking. Describe the actions that the NGOs are taking to address this problem in each of the three Tier 3 nations that you have selected. While the State Department document did not focus on NGOs, your response may take you outside of the State Department document so as to determine which NGO’s were central to addressing these issues.
