Report on the role of current and emerging technologies in human trafficking
Today a vast number of technologies play a significant role in the everyday lives of human beings, from those technologies that enable us to communicate to technologies that permit us to track our finances. Accordingly, it is necessary to consider how they are used both within the human trafficking process as well as in the fight against human trafficking. Accordingly, this part of TRACE is based on desk-based research, as well as information gleaned from interviews with those involved in combating and committing acts of THB. The report begins with an introduction to the study and a taxonomy of technologies that have been found to play a role in facilitating, combating and preventing THB.
