- Summary
- On June 14, 2010, the United States Department of State, Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons released the 2010 Trafficking in Persons Report (TIP Report). The TIP Report is comprehensive, well drafted and documented. In my opinion, the report constitutes the primary reference and main source of information on efforts made by foreign governments to combat trafficking in persons. The purpose of this review is to analyze the valuable information provided in the TIP Report. The Report is not only a diplomatic tool designed to engage governments in the battle against trafficking; it also serves an educational function, which has been the inspiration for this research.
