Summary
This report contains findings from research commissioned by Catholic Relief Services and the Kosova Population Foundation under the Partnership Against Trafficking in Human Beings (PATH) project supported by USAID. Quantitative research in the form of two surveys, one with the public-at-large and the second with young girls aged 14-18, was conducted in November and December 2006. The results are based on face-to-face interviews with 500 Kosovar Albanians, Kosovar Serbs, and other non-Serb minorities. Qualitative research in the form of one-on-one interviews was conducted with ten former victims of trafficking (survivors) and 18 clients of sex workers. The samples included Kosova Albanians and Serbs as well as some foreign victims of trafficking who are now residents of Kosovo. This research was conducted in December of 2006 and January of 2007. The objective of this research is to learn the knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of the different target audiences about the trafficking of human beings in Kosovo.
