Discuss how your chosen initiative addresses each of the three strategies identified in the UN Trafficking Protocol. Provide specific examples and be explicit in making connections in your analysis.

Overview:
The UN Trafficking Protocol provides an integrated framework for fighting human trafficking through a 3-pronged strategy of prevention of trafficking, prosecution of traffickers, and protection of victims.
The goal of this assignment is to identify examples that are being taken at the local, regional, and/or international level to fight human trafficking, and prepare a brief report.

Assignment: Write a report on a human trafficking initiative of your choice.

1. Conduct on-line research to identify one specific initiative(found down below) to fight human trafficking at the local level. The initiatives can be by non-governmental, governmental, or supranational groups or organizations, and can focus on one or more types of trafficking.

HINT:Select an initiative that engages in different types of actions at different
levels, so you can relate them to the various aspects of the UN strategy. View the following website to identify initiatives:
