Human Trafficking and the 2010 Games
Human trafficking is often a fear before hallmark sporting events. Members of our group engaged in research on whether this phenomenon really happens and what the effects of fear mongering “increased trafficking” are on sex working people.
The authors researched various locations and types of events across the planet and the lack of evidence that this increase actually occurs.
Sex workers are often exposed to higher levels of enforcement during these events and often for no reason. COnsistently over time research has shown that this is a myth and that human trafficking does not increase during hallmalrk sporting events.
