Human and Sex Trafficking
Course Information
Human trafficking is a heinous violation of a person`s most basic human rights and is a highly gendered-crime, impacting women and girls at significantly higher rates. While people acknowledge that human trafficking happens in developing countries, many Canadians are surprised to learn that it is happening right here in Canada and in their communities. This course will introduce students to human trafficking, specifically in the Canadian context, identify the risk factors that make someone vulnerable to being trafficked, identify grooming behaviours used by traffickers, explore industries that foster human trafficking and those with an ability to help end it, and explore the needs of survivors of human trafficking to regain control of their lives.
