Globalization & Human Trafficking

"Human Trafficking is the 2nd largest and fastest growing criminal industry in the world."
"Globalization has vastly increased human trafficking over the past decade."
"It is estimated that there are at least 30 MILLION victims of human trafficking in the world today."
"With the spread of globalization, what once was an illegal organization has transformed into an illegal INDUSTRY."
"According to the United Nation's Inter-Agency Project on Human Trafficking, this crime was virtually unknown until the 1990s."
Globalization is "the economies of countries all over the world connected through trade, outsourcing, and foreign investments."
"The ability to communicate, plan, and transport has allowed illegal enterprises to expand on a scale never seen before."
