| description |
Millions of men, women and children are
victims of human trafficking for sexual, forced labor and
other forms of exploitation worldwide. The human and
economic costs of this take an immense toll on individuals
and communities. By conservative estimates, the cost of
trafficking in terms of underpayment of wages and recruiting
fees is over $20 billion. The costs to human capital are
probably impossible to quantify. The problem of trafficking
cuts across a range of development issues, from poverty to
social inclusion, to justice and rule of law issues, and
thus has relevance for practitioners throughout the
development community. This note provides a brief overview
on the issues of human trafficking, which can be used as a
quick reference for the task team leaders, sector managers,
directors, and their clients at the World Bank Group. This
note will first provide a definition of human trafficking
and the scope of the problem, and then summarize the
regional trends of trafficking patterns. This is followed by
a discussion of the key actors in the anti-trafficking
movement and the role played by development partners in
preventing human trafficking. The final section offers some
potential orientations for the World Bank Group to further
engage this issue in its operations. |
