The WB-IOM joint report “Economic Shocks and Human Trafficking Risks” is the first empirical analysis of the relationship between changes in country-level economic conditions and the risks of human trafficking. The report uses IOM’s Victims of Human Trafficking (VoT) database, which contains information on around 50,000 victims of human trafficking including gender, age, educational attainment, place of birth, and country of exploitation.
Join the World Bank and IOM for the launch of this first-of-its-kind report on April 7th, 2022, at 9:30AM EDT / 3:30 CET.
