The 2021 Trafficking In Persons Report highlights the effects of global crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, and discriminatory policies and practices, on individuals vulnerable to exploitation, including human trafficking.
Key takeaways:
- Global crises have a disproportionate effect on individuals already oppressed by other injustices.
- Systemic discrimination creates inequities between communities, which help perpetuate an imbalance of opportunity and support.
- Governments must foster an inclusive environment that provides for a thriving, diverse workforce at all levels.
What the report does not address:
- The article does not address the potential economic impacts of global crises on vulnerable populations.
- The article does not address the potential political implications of global crises on vulnerable populations.
