Chris Mensah-Ankrah & Rex Osei Sarpong (Eban Centre for Human Trafficking Studies)

A nexus exists between corruption and human trafficking. This has affected the effectiveness of counter-human trafficking measures. Notwithstanding the relationship between human trafficking and corruption, the implications of corruption in the implementation of human trafficking strategy and policy is often not contemporary in anti-corruption approaches and strategy. The implications of corruption in human trafficking policy and strategy is often misunderstood and ignored in its systematic, sustainability and significance to the development of effective policy and strategy to deal with transnational organised crimes like human trafficking.
