Reframing Narratives: Anti-trafficking from the ground up

THEME: Mobilising for socio, economic and political campaigns

TITLE: Reframing Narratives: Anti-trafficking from the ground up

PUBLISHED BY: Global Alliance Against Traffic in Women (GAATW)

WHO IS THIS FOR: This annual publication by GAATW members is a series offering a unique GAATW perspective on emerging anti-trafficking issues, focusing on the experiences and efforts of members and allies rather than ranking responses or estimating case numbers. It aims to foster dialogue across global movements, connecting those in fields such as migration, women’s rights, labour organising, climate change, corporate accountability, and conflict with anti-trafficking work.

The inaugural issue, (In)formal Pathways to Justice, examines the mechanisms that influence migrant and trafficked individuals’ access to justice, highlighting both formal and informal avenues. It emphasises the protections provided by formal justice systems for exploited migrant women while acknowledging that many seek alternative paths for redress and safety. The issue focuses on the experiences of practitioners working on behalf of migrant women, exploring their motivations and outcomes. Overall, it prioritises the perspectives of migrant women and their many (in)formal pathways to justice.
