Issues Surrounding Human Trafficking

Many organizations have formed to establish several resolutions for combating the issue of human trafficking , both locally and nationally. I chose to investigate two existing social awareness campaigns located in Ohio. The reasons I decided to explore these two organizations is because of the obvious, that my classmates and I are in the state of Ohio but overall, it is due to the fact that this state rank's number five in the nation for human trafficking. There are explanations behind the ranking of Ohio for this issue. The first explanation is due to the inner city centers and country counties, which included a big immigrant population. The second explanation is due to five main highways located throughout Ohio. These highways make it convenient for human traffickers (Ohio State Bar Association, 2014).

27 million people all over the world are currently being forced into human trafficking or modern day slavery, 161 countries including the US will be affected by human trafficking. 1 million children will be exploited by the commercial sex trade each year. Sex trafficking began in the 1700s in the United States. It hasn’t been stopped because it continues to increase over the years. Even though the law enforcement and people around the world could be strong enough to stop human trafficking, I believe this situation needs to be more focused on and stopped as soon as possible. Because Human Trafficking is increasing rapidly and Oklahoma is a cross-way for sex trafficking due to the interstates such as I-35, I-40 and I-44.

Human trafficking is known worldwide as the modern-day form of slavery. According to several sources, 20-30 million people are currently enslaved or trafficked all around the world. This includes groups of people or individuals being held against their will. Human trafficking can be described as the use of force or fraud in order to gain control over another person. Over time, the wicked problem has grown exponentially due to the supply and demand of things. By spreading awareness and facts, human trafficking, as a wicked problem, could be controlled in the future.

Therefore, it is important for everyone to do his or her job within the confines of the law. This keeps us in business longer and the workers keep their jobs. It is also important for each employee to do his or her job at the highest level. This keeps the customers happy and the club employed. By this being an entertainment business, we will have some issues with law enforcement.

Sex trafficking, the act of an adult committing a commercial sex act with a minor, is a worldwide crisis, that around 4.5 million people have been forced into (Elrod and “What is Sex Trafficking?”). The trauma induced by traffickers can alter the psychological state of an individual forced into the business. Preventative measures being taken by the government to decrease the growing industry have proven to be effective, although more needs to be done. Human trafficking affects society, abductors, and victims, therefore the government is actively attempting to extinguish the issue with legislation.

It seems as though every issue that is argued by the American people seems to be, in one way or another, debating the age old question of freedom versus equality. The case of Richard Schmidt’s Cambodian adventures in sex tourism certainly argues this question, while at the same time it extends beyond the traditional argument. Schmidt’s case extends beyond the bounds of the American border, and for this reason it begs the question; can you ever escape the freedom (or lack thereof) of the American Government, even outside the country? The 2004 law passed under George W. Bush seems to argue otherwise, though there are definitely reasons which support the law. Sex trafficking, especially child sex trafficking, certainly has a black eye from nearly

"Human trafficking" was not defined in international, regional, and national laws until the late 2000s in Article 3, paragraph (a) of the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress, and Punish Trafficking in Persons, supplementing the United Nations Convention Against Transnational Organized Crime (Trafficking Protocol) , and the optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child on the Sale of Children, Child Prostitution, and Child Pornography (CRC Protocol) .

People hear stories of young boys and girls going oversea and getting kidnapped. The child is into force labor or sex. In today society pimp is glorified as a lady’s man. In reality pimp are not lady’s men, pimps are criminal. The relationship between pimps and prostitutess is not what the society, imagining it more brute than what people perceive. Many people think that pimps are harmless because of the movies and the songs. Society needs to look deeper than the surface when it comes to pimps and prostitutes, that the relationship is master and slave as in human trafficking. The pimp is a person that forces young child into sex for money with brutal force, against the woman will. Prostitutes are a person that does sexual favors for another person for money or another trade. Pimp are actually people that use human trafficking. Human trafficking is when a pimp makes and prostitutes have sex for his or her gain not the prostitute. The pimp will go to the bus stop or train stop to spot a runaway that is vulnerable. Pimp likes to prey on girls that are the age between twelve and fifteen. Pimps believe a young person does not know how to be strong enough to fend off the advance of a pimp. The pimp will act as if cares about the runway take the runway in and take care of the runway. The pimp makes the runway love them as if he or she is his or her girlfriend or boyfriend. The runway gets comfortable and then ask the runway to have sex with some of his or her friends so he can

Human trafficking in Moldova, is one of the biggest problems the country has. Human trafficking in Moldova is a big problem, because the country is poorer than most countries, and lacks resources that others have. Human trafficking, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, became a big problem, the country had just become independent from the Soviet Union, so it was ripe for people to take advantage. According to a blog by Kelsey Ferrell, on Moldova human trafficking “after the collapse of the Soviet Union, hundred and thousands of Moldovans were unemployed and desperate, making them vulnerable to exploitation”. The blog, does great job explaining why human trafficking is able to continue on and on the way it does. The blog explains, that corruption plays a big part in human trafficking. Corruption dominates society, and officials are easily bribed or even help the perpetrators in this human trafficking cases. Human trafficking in Moldova is so bad that child orphanages, become recruitment factories for traffickers to move around and exploit young girls. The main reason, based of the blog on why Moldova is so bad in combating human trafficking, is that the government does so little in trying to stop it. Nevertheless, the Moldovan government happens to be involved in helping traffickers, because the Moldovans officials are corrupt and power hungry. The image this sets for the people living in Moldova is that the people you trust to protect you can 't even do that. A main

Slavery. When you hear that word, what images come to mind? Most see loaded boats filled with kidnapped Africans, the brutality of greedy men, and the pain of the victims. Although some think slavery is an ideal of the past, it is in fact still very present in the modern day world, and the images associated with it are almost identical. Human trafficking, or “the modern slavery,” is defined as the “organized criminal activity in which human beings are treated as possessions to be controlled and exploited (as by being forced into prostitution or involuntary labor)” by Merriam Webster Dictionary (np). At any given time this affects 2.4 million people, 80% of whom are sexually exploited. This paper will highlight the tragic past of human trafficking for sexual exploitation and its current effect on society.

Human trafficking has been present in the world for many years. Such practices date as far back as the Romans. Trafficking has drastically increased, especially in profit around the world for those who benefit from the sales. Since then, tough practices and evolved technology have grown and aided in the growth of the trafficking trade. Human trafficking is not just meant for selling people for sex or selling them for work as some may believe, both take place. Especially here in the United States where one of our most popular sporting events attract traffickers. Those who participate in this practice whether they be the traffickers or customers damage our economy. Also, the various damaging effects of the victims leave them broken, some never recover. Fortunately, there are many ways to educate, prevent, and combat the trafficking of persons, labor and sex, and awareness is half the battle.

The Government of Spain has worked extensively in the past and during our time on the United Nations Security Council to combat injustices around the globe and also to help nations in need. Some of the issues that our government has been especially focused on include the prevention of human trafficking, whether or not admit Palestine, Kosovo, and Taiwan to the United Nations, and which nation should have domain over the South China Sea. We have worked extensively to determine the best course of action regarding these issues, including reviewing previous UN Resolutions and international laws. The Government of Spain recognizes that not all of these issues can be easily solved or addressed, but has worked tirelessly to make decisions about these issues that coincide not only with our national interests, but with the interests of the larger global community.

When I found out about my first essay, I was not ready to begin my research. I honestly did not want to think about it but the due date was inevitable. The thought of writing my essay was frightening enough but deciding on a topic and searching for sources was a completely different story. After a few sleepless nights, I finally decided on my topic, human trafficking. I chose this topic because I believe human trafficking is a problem not only in America but worldwide and needs to be taken seriously. My strong dislike for research papers is not something to hide but I am hoping for the best for this essay and the class.

Human rights are something that everyone receives as soon as they are born in the world. These rights are given to everyone just for simply living on the earth no matter their race, sex, religion, or ethnicity. When someone tries to take one of those rights away it is called a human rights violation. A right that is interesting is the Right to Freedom. Something that violates the Right to Freedom is human trafficking, which also violates the 13th Amendment which abolished slavery in 1865, with the help of Abraham Lincoln. Human trafficking can be used for many different things such as torture, forced labor, sexual diminuendos, organ removal and debt bondage, all of these resulting in the profit of money. The use of humans for money is

The recent surge of interest in ending human trafficking, a complex and multi-faceted phenomenon, has been slow and selective. The inner reason for the poor success is the prevailing conception of the problem.
