Kala

“This course provided excellent information regarding human trafficking in the United States. When I learned about human trafficking previously, it was most often spoken about on the global scale. This course took an in-depth look at human trafficking specifically in our communities right here in the U.S.”

Where did you get your statistics and resources for TraffickWatch Academy?

Our primary sources for the information shared on Traffickwatch Academy can be found at Global Slavery Index, the U.S. Trafficking In Persons Report, Polaris, and the International Labor Organization.

All video resources are produced by The Exodus Road. TraffickWatch Academy Brazil resources come from a variety of Brazilian experts. Those sources are cited within the training platform.

Why is this training important?

Awareness training is a form of human trafficking prevention. Training like this can be a highly effective way for law enforcement, leaders, citizens, organizations, schools, and businesses to recognize and deter human trafficking.

Human trafficking is a significant social justice issue in our world. Unfortunately, few people have access to education that equips them to understand the issue and identify the warning signs. When passionate people are equipped with knowledge about how to recognize and prevent exploitation in their local communities, a significant impact on freedom becomes possible.
