“…Labor exploitation of children or adolescents occurs in many sectors of the U.S. economy including forced begging/peddling, domestic work, agricultural, or service industries (Greenbaum, 2016; Kaufka Walts, 2017; NHTRC, 2016). Traffickers of minors may be strangers, boyfriends, girlfriends, employers, drug dealers, or relatives (Carpinteri, Bang, Klimley, Black, & Van Hasselt, 2017; Raphael, Reichert, & Powers, 2010; Reid, 2016a; Serie et al, 2018 Sprang & Cole, 2018).…”

The objective of this study was to analytically identify risk profiles for juvenile human trafficking (JHT) based on adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and health risk behaviors.First, the study examined which types of ACEs and health risk behaviors were more prevalent among trafficked adolescents using a sample of 913 male and female juvenile-justice-involved adolescents with suspected or verified JHT abuse reports documented between 2009 and 2015 and a comparison group (matched by age, gender, race, ethnicity, and location). Second, latent class analysis was used to identify profiles of risk for JHT. Finally, associations between JHT risk profiles and demographic characteristics provided a more comprehensive depiction of various types of trafficked adolescents. Study findings indicate that adolescents with JHT abuse reports were more likely to report child maltreatment and internalizing health risk behaviors reflective of self-harm and attempts to cope with trauma. Trafficked youth were less likely to report externalizing health risk behaviors related to violence or harming others. Six distinctive profiles of risk for JHT were identified. Three JHT risk profiles were characterized by extensive child maltreatment and health risk behaviors and were differentiated by placement in foster care and substance use. Three JHT risk profiles were characterized by less extensive histories of child maltreatment and were differentiated by drug use. In conclusion, these findings highlight that the current depictions of adolescent victims of human trafficking are too narrow and may lead to critical health care and service provision disparities for many trafficked adolescents.

“…Además, presentaban mayores porcentajes en el uso de drogas inyectadas, en ser agredida en los últimos 12 meses por algun cliente y en ofrecer sexo sin protección a cambio de más dinero. El otro trabajo es el de Duff y otros (2017), que investigaba sobre violencia, en una muestra de 545 trabajadoras sexuales en Vancouver, pertenecían a tres contextos de trabajo sexual diferentes, las que atendían a sus clientes en espacios interiores informales (41%), las situadas en espacios públicos (37%) y aquellas que se ocupaban en espacios interiores formales (22%). En esta muestra, el 50% había tenido algún evento violento físico o verbal por parte de algún cliente, jefe o policía.…”

“…Link y otros (2001) han señalado varios elementos asociados al estigma, que podemos aplicar al trabajo sexual: la etiqueta negativa que recae sobre las mujeres, cuyo origen encontramos en el patriarcado, que diferencia a las mujeres en buenas y malas; los estereotipos que se asocian con la actividad, muchos de los cuales no son reales y se magnifican para marcan su negatividad; la separación de las trabajadoras sexuales del resto de actividades y de la sociedad, que se concreta en normas determinadas de lo que se permite o no al colectivo de mujeres; y cuando el respeto y la dignidad de las trabajadoras sexuales es quebrantado, estas mujeres pierden estatus social y, por tanto, aparece una mayor discriminación ejercida por distintos actores sociales. Como ha señalado Weitzer (2017), la descriminalización del trabajo sexual reduce el estigma, pero no lo elimina; hacen falta un cambio de actitud y de creencias y una vivencia de normalización y tolerancia hacía el trabajo sexual. Junto con estos aspectos, el otorgar derechos a las mujeres que realizan trabajo sexual mejoraría sus condiciones de vida e incrementaría sus posibilidades de desarrollo.…”

La perspectiva de género y su estudio como variable aparece escasamente incluida en las investigaciones sobre prostitución o trabajo sexual. Por ello, este estudio analiza las diferencias de género en una muestra de 553 trabajadoras/es sexuales en España, situada en un estrato medio de la prostitución, y que fue recogida mediante métodos etnográficos, con entrevistas, encuesta y diario de campo. El comienzo en el trabajo sexual fue por coacción para el 13,4% de la muestra y la principal motivación fue la necesidad económica. Los resultados muestran diferencias importantes entre los géneros, que quedan invisibilizadas al no incluirlos en los estudios.

“…In states like Abia, Ebonyi and Lagos, many cases have been reported to clinics, doctors, nurses and orphanages who help pregnant teenagers and other women who do not want to keep their babies after birth; they care for these women during pregnancy and provide money and shelter; upon delivery the babies are sold to couples who pay a premium for the babies of their choice; the young mothers are paid off after having signed papers repudiating their claims on the babies or swearing oaths of secrecy (UNESCO, 2006;ACCORD, 2017). Second, is the sexual exploitation type; according to Serie et al (2018), women and girls are most vulnerable to sexual exploitation and slavery in human trafficking. In Nigeria, many become victims while seeking gainful employment, education or improved living circumstances; some women and girls are exploited while on transit to their destination; while others are not told what awaits them upon arrival and are forced into prostitution (Oduwale et al, 2013).…”

Corporate social responsibility in Nigeria and multinational corporations in the fight against human trafficking in oil-producing communities

In Nigeria, human trafficking is a hidden crime, driven by the current economic situation of the country. The Nigerian government has demonstrated significant efforts to combating human trafficking in the country by creating the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP). The incidents of human trafficking in the Nigeria's oil-producing communities have remained among the highest in the country and higher than the national average. The objective of this investigation was to determine the impact of a new corporate social responsibility (CSR) model of multinational oil companies (MOCs) on the fight against human trafficking in the host communities. A total of one thousand, two hundred households were sampled across the rural communities of Niger Delta. Results from the use of a combined propensity score matching and logit model indicated that MOCs hold the key to combating human trafficking by fostering effective partnership across different sectors, if highest CSR priority is assigned to reducing incidents of human trafficking in the oil-producing communities. Embracing the fight against human trafficking should form the foundation of General Memorandum of Understanding (GMoUs) practice, which in turn will provide the enabling environment for more widespread responsible business. As most of the human trafficking in the Niger Delta is exploited by relatives or friends; MOCs should involve traditional and religious leaders in the fight and set up GMoU clusters interventions specifically for anti-trafficking agencies including NAPTIP, the police and immigration to support their actions and improve efficiency.
