New Approach On People-Trafficking Called For By UN Human Rights Chief / Europaworld 29/ Oct 2004

"People-trafficking continues to be largely treated as a law-and-order problem even though it actually should be approached from a human rights and development perspective, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Louise Arbour says in a new report.
In her annual report to the General Assembly, Ms. Arbour says the crime of people-trafficking - 'with large numbers of women and minors tricked, sold or otherwise coerced into situations of exploitation, forced labour or slavery-like practices' - has become one of the world's biggest human rights issues today."
