成人头条Talks is a lunchtime series that gives you the chance to discover and discuss interesting projects going on at the 成人头条versity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have all heard about human trafficking \u2013 one of the most serious offences under EU law. But what does it really mean? Often, it\u2019s confused with other concepts like modern slavery, smuggling of migrants, prostitution, and forced labour. The reality is that human trafficking is an increasingly complex phenomenon. Players from different fields must work together to prevent these violations of human rights, prosecute offenders, and support survivors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Law enforcement agencies, non-governmental organisations, multinational companies and even consumers all play critical roles in combatting human trafficking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Academia also has a major part to play: legal scholars help shape the rights of trafficked victims, sociologists explore the risk factors and indicators of trafficking, and experts in artificial intelligence develop software to detect patterns of trafficking online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Going back to basics, this talk will give an overview of the main challenges currently facing the anti-trafficking framework, particularly in the EU and Luxembourg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
