Summary
The report stems from a review of current literature produced by various USAID anti-TIP activities, and publicly accessible and relevant assessments and evaluations from anti-TIP programs funded by other donors (for a complete list, see Annex A, References). Additionally, the author draws on some of her own experiences in implementing antitrafficking programs in countries of the region. One of the main limitations which was revealed by the use of this methodology was the dearth of impact data available in the existing literature and project documents. Project documents were found to contain mostly process or output indicators (numbers of people trained or assisted, for example). While the general objectives and goals of the projects were provided in the project documents, measurements of the impact of the projects were generally not provided or were not clear or specific enough to demonstrate program impact.
