Human Trafficking is a major international policy challenge. On the World Day Against Trafficking in Persons, SHRAM compiled a special feature of academic and news resources on human trafficking in Asia, exploring economic dimensions of trafficking, national and international policy frameworks, interrogating the demand-supply trafficking discourse, and gauging the extent of trafficking prevalent in Asia today. This July SHRAM in Action features a new partner project, intervention narratives, and an inspiring rescue story involving coordination between SHRAM partners across states. Their success reflects the key role source-destination linkages can play in interventions.
