This course introduces students to the complex issues related to human trafficking, in its various forms (e.g., labor, sex, organ, and other forms force, fraud, and/or coercion), through local and global lenses. Students will explore the underlying causes and contributing factors to human trafficking and human rights violations, including ways that institutionalized oppressions reinforce vulnerabilities of marginalized groups. The course further examines the impact of human trafficking on victims/survivors and the need for culturally competent services and resources. We will also explore policy development, from the past, present, and into the future. Prerequisite(s): None.
