Integration of a human rights-based approach in measures to discourage the demand that fosters all forms of exploitation of persons, especially women and children, and which leads to human trafficking 2013, para. 78
Paragraph
Paragraph text
An increased focus on consultation of the key groups affected by measures to reduce demand may reduce the possibility of unanticipated negative impacts of such strategies arising, or of the implementation of measures which are not wanted by those they will primarily impact upon. A range of human rights are violated in human trafficking cases, covering a broad area in the social sphere and linked to different kinds of activities. Responses, therefore, require a multidisciplinary approach. Consultation with those affected by measures to reduce demand can highlight the complexity of the issues, as well as suggesting further courses of action and research.
