According to the UNODC (2015), human trafficking (HT) is the fastest growing means by which people are enslaved, the fastest growing international crime, and one of the largest sources of income for organized criminal networks. It profoundly impacts the physical and mental health of victims, their families, and entire communities and is recognized as a crime against humanity. Divided into four sections, the Handbook offers the reader a comprehensive and fresh approach via: a) in-depth analyses and opportunities for application (through case studies, critical thinking questions, and supplemental learning materials); b) multi-disciplinary linkages, with disciplinary overlap across each of the four sections acknowledged and highlighted; c) content experts representing multiple segments of society (e.g. academia, government, foundation, law enforcement, and practice) and global vantage points (e.g., Australia, Finland, Germany, Netherlands, South Africa, Thailand, and the United States).
