Trafficking in persons in conflict and post-conflict situations 2016, para. 37
- Paragraph text
- Post-conflict situations are typically characterized by absent or dysfunctional justice and law enforcement institutions; a consequent climate of impunity that fosters violent criminal networks; high levels of poverty and lack of basic resources; significant inequality; large populations of highly vulnerable individuals (displaced persons, returnees, widows, unaccompanied children); fractured communities and lack of trust; and militarized societies tolerant of extreme levels of violence. These features render men, women and children in post-conflict societies especially vulnerable to trafficking.

- Paragraph text
- The need for this "system-building" approach may be illustrated by experiences in poverty-reduction programmes. While such programmes may be often implemented as a preventive measure, experience suggests that increasing economic empowerment alone does not necessarily reduce the incidence of trafficking. In this regard, the International Labour Organization (ILO) stresses the importance of "packaging" interventions so that measures such as microfinance and other income-generating activities are combined with measures to address other factors that create conditions in which people are vulnerable to trafficking. The ILO project to combat trafficking in children and women in the greater Mekong subregion is a good example of how various interventions were integrated into one package and successfully mitigated vulnerability to trafficking. In this project, ILO combined information-sharing, capacity-building, awareness-raising, communication campaigns and direct assistance through employment creation, vocational skills training, educational support and microcredit schemes, particularly targeting at-risk women and children and their families.

Prevention of trafficking in persons 2010, para. 23
- Paragraph text
- In this process, the dynamic force of globalization and trade liberalization exacerbates the feminization of poverty and migration. A number of reports indicate that structural adjustment measures imposed by global financial institutions such as the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund increased poverty, unemployment, inequality and the degree of insecurity in many countries. In many cases, such adverse effects fall on women, as structural adjustment often involves the privatization of the public sector, which reduces access to social services that women may rely on. Trade liberalization may also result in cheap imports so that certain industries dominated by women, such as agriculture and textiles, are not able to survive, causing a loss of employment of the women. These effects all contribute to creating powerful "push" factors for women to migrate to seek employment outside their countries of origin, even at the risk of abuse, exploitation and trafficking.

Paragraphe
Prevention of trafficking in persons 2010, para. 22
- Paragraph text
- Women are recognized as the group particularly affected by such failure. In this regard, it is timely and important to recall the States' commitments towards the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals, particularly goal 1 (eradicate extreme poverty and hunger), goal 2 (achieve universal primary education), and goal 3 (promote gender equality and empower women). While the overall poverty rate has been reduced somewhat, some regions, such as sub-Saharan Africa, Western Asia and parts of Eastern Europe and Central Asia, still need to make progress to meet the 2015 targets on poverty eradication. Sex discrimination still persists, and poverty puts girls at a distinct disadvantage in terms of education. Furthermore, women are still largely relegated to temporary or informal employment with little or no social security or benefits. This failure to provide equal and just opportunities for women to education and work encourages the feminization of poverty. This, in turn, compels women to leave their homes in search of better opportunities, resulting in the feminization of migration.

- Paragraph text
- [Those provisions make clear that prevention measures should address both the supply and demand factors leading to trafficking in persons. In that regard, guideline 7 of the Recommended Principles and Guidelines on Human Rights and Human Trafficking, issued by OHCHR in July 2002 (E/2002/68/Add.1), provides further guidance. The main prevention measures recommended by guideline 7 may be categorized as follows:] Addressing the root causes of trafficking, including poverty, lack of education and discrimination against women and other traditionally disadvantaged groups, with a view to reducing their vulnerability;
