The report features an overview culled from The Foundation’s experience in implementing program interventions in collaboration with an expanding network of local and international partners that share our commitment to bettering the lives of trafficking victims and protecting those at-risk of being trafficked. The Foundation implemented a comprehensive program with components designed to be complementary and mutually reinforcing. Those components include: economic empowerment initiatives that target poor women and provide access to credit and vocational training; creating awareness of trafficking risks by implementing artbased communication campaigns on safe migration in schools and communities; enhancing access to justice by offering legal aid support to victims who are reintegrating into Vietnamese communities; supporting victim reintegration by developing innovative new community support group models; and facilitating cross-border cooperation to stop trafficking. The report is divided into three main sections: I) Program Introduction, II) Analysis of the Eight Program Components, and III) Conclusions. Through descriptive analysis, case studies of individuals, program highlights, and detailed lessons learned, the report describes the contributions of the program and the challenges encountered in addressing the multiple facets of the serious and complex human trafficking problem in Vietnam.

Author: Dinh, Ngan Title: Human Trafficking in Southeast Asia: Results from a Pilot Project in Vietnam Summary: Human trafficking is one of the most widely spread and fastest growing crimes in the world. However, despite the scope of the problem, the important human rights issues at stake and the professed intent of governments around the world to put an end to "modern day slavery", there is very little that is actually known about the nature of human trafficking and those most at risk as potential victims. This is due in large part to the difficulty in collecting reliable and statistically useful data. In this paper we present the results of a pilot study run in rural Vietnam with the aim of overcoming these data issues. Rather than attempt to identify victims themselves, we rely on the form rural migration often takes in urbanizing developing countries to instead identify households that were sources of trafficking victims. This allows us to construct a viable sampling frame, on which we conduct a survey using novel techniques such as anchoring vignettes, indirect sampling, list randomization and social network analysis to construct a series of empirically valid estimates that can begin to shed light on the problem of human trafficking.
