Is there an effective solution to stop human trafficking?
There is no easy or uni-dimensional solution to human trafficking, since
it is influenced by a complex set of factors, often working in
combination with one another. It concludes that control measures alone
cannot stop the flow of trafficking in women and that a legal approach
which relies solely on one type of legislation would be too narrow. An
effective strategy must combine and balance punitive measures with
protection of human rights, stricter border control and the removal of
the root causes of irregular movements. Measures must be agreed and
coordinated between origin, transit and receiving countries. (Impe, 2000)
