Subcommittee on East Asian and Pacific Affairs and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-12 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Slavery still exists. It exists around the world today, and it is something that must be stopped. Trafficking is the modern-day slavery. Trafficking can take many forms. Young girls and boys are trafficked for prostitution, and labor is also trafficked. The United States has been a global leader in combating modern-day slavery and trafficking. The U.S. Helsinki Commission, which rotates between the House and the Senate, raised the issue of trafficking as a human rights issue and discussed the manner in which the United States could play a major role. As a result of the hearings in the Commission, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), took major steps to help all 57 states in the OSCE deal with trafficking issues. It also led to the passage of the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act in 2000, and we now have what is known as the Trafficking in Persons Report that we receive every year. In 2010, the United States was included in the Trafficking in Persons Report as one of the countries that is evaluated.

Download or read book A Global Alliance Against Forced Labour written by International Labour Office and published by International Labour Organization. This book was released on 2005 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is an account of contemporary forced labour to date. It provides the first global and regional estimates by an international organization of forced labour in the world today, including the number of people affected and how many of them are victims of trafficking, as well as of the profits made by the criminals exploiting trafficked workers.Based on these data, the report highlights the gravity of the problem of forced labour. From this data emerges three major categories of forced labour: forced labour imposed by the State for economic, political or other purposes, forced labour linked to poverty and discrimination and forced labour that arises from migration and trafficking of workers across the world, often associated with globalization.The report provides evidence that the abolition of forced labour represents a challenge for virtually every country in the world industrialized, transition and developing countries alike. It assesses experience at the national level in taking up this challenge, with particular emphasis on the importance of sound laws and policies and their rigorous enforcement, as well as effective prevention strategies. The report also reviews the actions against forced labour taken over the past four years by the ILO and its tripartite partners governments, employers and workers. It calls for a new global alliance to relegate forced labour to history.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extrait de l'introduction : "Trafficking in persons, especially women and children, for commercial sexual exploitation is one of the fastest growing areas of international criminal activity and of increasing concern to the international community, including the Commonwealth. Trafficking for the purposes of labour exploitation, forced labour, marriage, adoption and the trade in organs are additional areas of concern, but are less well documented. The overwhelming majority of trafficked persons are women and girls. Consequently, this discussion focises primarily on strategies to combat the unlawful trafficking of women and children."
