Summary:

This publication by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime explores global responses to human trafficking, following the ratification of the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons. It highlights legislative and criminal justice measures adopted by over 150 countries, focusing on sexual exploitation and forced labor. Despite legislative advancements, the effectiveness of these measures remains difficult to assess due to definitional challenges and inconsistent data. The book offers a global overview and detailed country profiles, with a special emphasis on Europe. It aims to inform policymakers, researchers, and international organizations about current trends and practices in combating human trafficking. Generated by AI.
