An estimated 24.9 million people have the same problem. Traffickers make money by compelling them to work or engage in prostitution.
Zero Deterrence
Although trafficking is illegal in every country, it explodes where the laws are not enforced.
Exploding Profits
Annual profits from human trafficking exceed those of Apple, Microsoft, Samsung, BP, and Exxon combined.
Stop Traffickers
Survivor care is essential, but if law enforcement does not stop traffickers, they will keep churning out more victims who need survivor care.
Too Risky
Many traffickers will leave the vulnerable alone when the alternative is forfeiting their profits and losing their freedom.
The Solution
Trafficking collapses when traffickers go to jail, but police and prosecutors cannot stop traffickers if they are never equipped to do so.
The PLAN.
Drawing on more than two decades of human trafficking enforcement experience, the Human Trafficking Institute works with partner countries to measurably reduce trafficking by:
Specialized Units Establishing specialized units to enforce anti-trafficking laws.
Academy Creating an Academy to train and equip the specialized units.
Embedded Experts Embedding experts within the specilized units to work cases.
