Exploring Possibilities of Preventing Sex Trafficking at the Source
Abstract:
Sex trafficking has been an issue of debate among academics and activists for long. While the official legal response of the state and one side of this debate remains rescue and rehabilitation with an aim to abolish or prevent exploitation for prostitution, the other side demands legalization or decriminalization with right to sex work. But the resultant action through all this remains more or less restricted to tackling the consequences of sex trafficking at the destination areas. This paper argues that the present day efforts at destination areas have been insufficient at tackling sex trafficking and hence there is a need to focus on the source areas and tackling the root causes of trafficking and preventing sex trafficking. This paper suggests two frameworks for this, namely, human rights framework and crime prevention approaches.
