Evaluating Policies Against Human Trafficking Worldwide: An Overview and Review of the 3P Index

 

Author: Cho, Seo-Young

Abstract: The recent evaluation outcome of the 3P Anti-Trafficking Policy Index shows that many countries fail to provide proper protection for victims of human trafficking. Furthermore, prosecution efforts have recently declined worldwide due to negligence in enforcement. These findings suggest that the policy focus of human rights and the actual implementation of written law are central to successfully achieving anti-trafficking objectives.
