Issue 23 – June 2019

Bangladesh is one of the source countries as well as transit points for human trafficking. Every year thousands of people are trafficked out. In a study, it has been found that among the trafficking victims, the women and the children are in the most vulnerable position. From Bangladesh, around four hundred women and children are trafficked out every month (Sultana 2015). All these victims are abducted either for forced labor or for sexual exploitations.
