From Punishment to Protection (of rights): A feminist analysis of trafficking for forced criminality in the ASEAN region
Trafficking for forced criminality has historically received less attention from international institutions, the media and the human rights sector. However, awareness of this form of trafficking is increasing globally. This briefing paper aims to support that growing recognition by examining how trafficking for forced criminality is occurring within the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) region.

Trafficking for Forced Criminality in Europe: Protection Gaps in an Era of Restrictive Migration Policy
This report is published at a time when punitive approaches to migration, crime and border control are increasing across Europe. For years, victims of trafficking for forced criminality have been treated as offenders or ‘illegal immigrants’ rather than as rights holders who have experienced exploitation and coercion. Despite growing recognition of the scale and severity of trafficking for forced criminality across Europe, institutional responses continue to fail at effective prevention, identification and protection. Whilst some governments in the last decade have introduced specific laws designed to protect victims of trafficking from punishment for the crimes they were forced to commit, the majority of these laws fall short of international standards, or are inconsistently implemented.
