Global progress and delay in ending violence against childrenThomas Müller
The International NGO Council on Violence against Children was established in 2006 to work with NGOs and other partners, including member states, to ensure that the recommendations from the UN Study on Violence against Children are effectively implemented. Now, as the Sustainable Development Goals adopt the call to end all violence against children and the Global Partnership to End Violence Against Children take up the mantle of pursuing this goal, the NGO Council publishes its fourth and final report.
The report concludes that for many children around the world violence is an ever present fact of life. Where progress has been made, it remains tainted by its limitations. The contributions from key global experts on violence against children point to some hard truths about our failings, but also to the way ahead.
Wellbeing of young people subject to immigration controlYoung Lives Oxford
Approximately 13,000 unaccompanied children apply for asylum in Europe each year. This study explores what happens to them when they 'become adult' at the age of 18 while still subject to immigration control. The presentation reflects on how we might best capture the well-being outcomes of young people becoming 'adult' as they experience multiple transitions across different maturation, geographic, bureaucratic, cultural and cognitive spaces.

Abstract
Human trafficking has been a global crisis existing since the 13th century. However, the action violates human rights and the mission to end modern-day slavery. Human trafficking can actively be done where people are forced to work, enslaved people, or commercial sexual exploitation; otherwise, passive human traffic exists in cases of forced marriage. The research needs to identify the source of the million cases of human trafficking as a gazette in the California charter. There is an urgent need to end modern-day slavery, promote equality consciousness, and promote humanity.
Introduction
Criminology relates to different topics. The research focuses on human trafficking as a discipline of criminology. The study incorporates various data collection methods such as observation and internet exploration. This article integrates knowledge from all sources to find out more about human trafficking, the possible reasons for the recent increase of related cases, and provide possible solutions as suggested.
Methodology: Secondary Data
Human trafficking has existed for centuries, and the misled culture continues today. According to (Adler, Mueller, and Laufer,2007), the slave trade still exists between developing and affluential countries. During the research, secondary methods of data collection used include; government publications, public records, documents, and internet exploration (Adler, Mueller, and Laufer,2007).
According to government publications on global human trafficking analysis, 70 percent of developing countries experience the challenge directly or indirectly (Cockbain & Bowers, 2019). The number of trafficking victims is estimated to be 27 million globally, with between one and two million trafficked each year internationally (Cockbain & Bowers, 2019). The clear case is in Pakistan, where sex trafficking is often seen as a regular activity to sustain basic needs.
The problem has become a global crisis in which fewer efforts to provide a long-lasting solution have entirely failed. (Cockbain & Bowers, 2019) says a common factor of human trafficking is sex trafficking across the borders between developing countries and affluent nations. Many victims of the immoral and violated actions are youths, majorly young women, and underage children trying to secure peanut earnings through sexual acts (Adler, Mueller, & Laufer,2007). Instead of helping the low-income families make a living, the affluents take advantage to harass them sexually and encourage sexual trafficking.
However, distinguished human trafficking, where low-income earners are forced labor is evident in the United States (Adler, Mueller, & Laufer,2007). Domestic trafficking and illegal labor mobility are apparent from state to state without the consent and agreement of the servant. In a case documented in the California gazette, a domestic lady worker from Pakistan working in ...

1. Child trafficking or teenage migration? Bolivian migrants in Argentina Tanja Bastia School of Environment and Development University of Manchester
2. Introduction Power of defining social process Trafficking and international policies As social scientists we can analyse why these processes take place and the consequences of using particular labels Child trafficking Growing international concern International legislation to protect victims of trafficking (children and women) Concern with worst forms of child labour Parallels with child labour discourses and critique Interrogating Rightfulness of definitions used to describe these processes Implications of these definitions 2
3. Trafficking in Latin America Limited but increasing information Fluidity of movements across borders, including for work Little information on gendered patterns of migration Southern Cone and USA Poles of attraction create two ‘migration systems’ International migration in Southern Cone an extension of internal migration 3
4. Background - Bolivian migration to Argentina Long-standing migration Characteristics: labour migration, links with origins, social networks Trends Changing destinations: from northern Argentina to Buenos Aires Increasing illegality Feminisation of migration Crisis 2001 New migration to Spain 4
5. Four case studies of teenage migrants/ victims of trafficking Maria 16 when recruited to work in garment workshop Debt - 3 months without pay Escaped Now in Bolivia studying Isabel 16 when recruited Signed a contract, escaped, returned to workshop and stayed 5 years Jose From 13 years old, agricultural work Miriam From 15 years old, agricultural and domestic work 5
6. Mechanisms Reasons for wanting to migrate Same as for economic migrants Poverty, income differentials, gender-based discrimination Recruitment Some recruited, others migrated with parents Deceit and lies; family pressures Working conditions Exploitative working conditions, 8am-8pm, 30 min lunch Accommodation and food Consequences Longitudinal view based on life stories Maria and Juan are studying, Isabel and Miriam worked have now set up their own families. 6
7. Discussion: child trafficking or teenage migration? Child trafficking defined as: “ the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harbouring or receipt of a child for the purpose of exploitation shall be considered ‘trafficking in persons’ even if this does not involve any of the means set forth in subparagraph (a) of this article” (UN Protocol, 2000, Article 3, Subparagraph (c)). 7
8. Discussion: child trafficking or teenage migration? Teenagers’ experience can be defined as child trafficking Contravene national legislation Exploitative working conditions Deceit and force used in some cases Portrayal of victims of trafficking Extreme cases of exploitation Focus on protection Lack of distinction between younger and older ‘children’ An issue of child labour? UNICEF (2002) against framing of child trafficking as a labour issue Children = victims, passive, without agency 8
9. Child trafficking is a child labour issue Four cases analysed Deemed old enough to migrate for work Global labour markets What would be local teenage workers become ‘victims of trafficking’ because of border crossing Root of the problem - teenagers exploited because: Teenagers’ need to work Lack of ‘decent’ work opportunities (locally and internationally) Migration policies that allow movement but grant migrants limited (if any) rights 9
10. International migration policy Focus on migration ‘management’ (control) Teenage migrants are unlikely to have any rights under current migration policy rhetoric, but Their migration for work can have positive effects on their long-term chances Education Work experience New skills Savings Higher status within the household 10
11. Policy proposals Short and long-term policies needed Short term policies need to address the current needs of teenage migrant workers Support Advice Emergency accommodation Training in destination country Long-term policies need to address the root causes of migration 11
