Ending Child Trafficking in West Africa: Lessons from the Ivorian cocoa sector
This report finds that trafficking of children to cocoa farms in Côte d’Ivoire still occurs. The research found significant numbers of young people in Mali and Burkina Faso who had worked as children in cocoa farms in Côte d’Ivoire in the last five years. The practices occur in the context of large-scale movements of people within the region including the trafficking of children to other  agricultural activities and to other sectors.

Trafficking in Women, Forced Labour and Domestic Work: in the context of the Middle East and Gulf Region
Migrant female domestic workers around the world are often vulnerable to serious human rights abuses, because of such factors as their invisibility and the lack of protection and access to public services. The report investigates the experiences of migrant domestic workers in the region, the dynamics and workings of the migration process and how migration (if at all) contributes to trafficking; and looks at what are some of the key inter-connecting dynamics involved between slavery, trafficking, migration and forced labour.
It focuses particularly on several selected sending, receiving and transit countries (Egypt, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Lebanon, Sudan and Yemen).

The Migration-Trafficking Nexus: Combating trafficking through the protection of migrants' human rights
Trafficking, smuggling and migration are separate, but inter-related issues. This publication seeks to look at the issue of trafficking within a broader migration framework and to propose policies which would be effective in reducing trafficking and in preventing the human and labour rights violations to which migrant workers are so often subjected today. Also available in Spanish and Khmer.
