- Summary
The far-reaching effects of human trafficking highlight the need for innovative solutions and resources. The involvement of the private sector is, thus, critical in the fight against human trafficking. Because it is in many instances a labor issue, and not just a human rights issue, being leaders in anti-trafficking should simply be good business.
