Trafficking does not always look the way people expect.
It can take place in a home, workplace, online, in prostitution or in organised crime. Control may involve threats — but also debt, dependency, deception or abuse of a vulnerable situation.
We want to make reliable information easier to find, easier to understand and easier to act on.
Humantrafficking.se is independent. We do not publish sensational stories, identify exploited people, or replace professional help. We direct visitors to responsible authorities and support organisations.
