Anti-Trafficking Achievement Standard
"The Fight Against Human Trafficking" provides a well-researched, up-to-date resource for schools, informed by practical field experience of fighting trafficking and exploitation. It has been developed for Geography Level 3 (AS 91431 v2 (3.6) Analyse aspects of a contemporary geographic issue.) However its material can be adapted for other courses.
Human trafficking is a multi-billion dollar industry. Young children, migrant workers, and indigenous people are particularly at risk of being trafficked. Domestic work, the commercial sex industry, agriculture, and manufacturing are key sectors of concern. Indeed, many of the goods we consume in our daily lives may have been produced by trafficked people.
Students explore the issue, focussing on the factors that fuel trafficking, its impacts on individuals, communities and countries, and steps that can be taken to address this crime. Students also discuss their own practices and norms around the consumption of products of forced labour. Includes: Assessment, Marking guide, Exemplar Answers, and a Lesson Pack of activities for teachers with worksheets and case studies.
