What is Child Trafficking

 

     Trafficking of children or the sale of children is a form of Human Trafficking and is defined as the “recruitment, transportation, transfer, harboring, and/or receipt" of a child for the purposes of exploitation. Statistics and or comprehensive metrics regarding the true magnitude of child trafficking are difficult to obtain, the International Labour Organization estimates that 1.2 million children are trafficked each year. The trafficking of children has been internationally recognized as a major human rights violation, one that exists in practically every region of the world. Sadly, it is only within the past decade that the prevalence and ramifications of this practice have risen to international prominence, due to a dramatic increase in research and mounting public action. A variety of potential solutions have accordingly been suggested and implemented, which can be categorized as four types of action: broad protection, prevention, law enforcement, and victim care and assistance.
