Child trafficking
A short definition
A child has been trafficked if he or she has been moved within a country, or across borders, whether by force or not, with the purpose of exploiting the child.
Under international law, child trafficking is a crime involving the movement of children for the purpose of their exploitation.
A child is a person under the age of 18 years.
Organised movement of a child: Trafficking implies that someone has organised the movement of a child with the immediate or ultimate aim of the child's exploitation. This could involve a transaction where someone receives payment or a benefit to agree to a child being exploited.
Purpose of the movement: All those who have contributed to it and knew that what they did was likely to lead to the exploitation of the child – recruiters, intermediaries, document providers, transporters, corrupt officials, employers and exploiters – are traffickers. Conversely, a person moving a child without the intention, knowledge or suspicion that the child would be exploited is not likely to be a trafficker.
Movement that renders the child vulnerable: The child's movement may be across international borders or within a country. Child trafficking exist especially where the movement has rendered the child vulnerable, and that the vulnerability was planned to be exploited. Children could be rendered vulnerable by the fact that they do not have close relatives at their destination, do not have money or means to return home, cannot speak the language, are disadvantaged by their legal status, suffer a lack of access to basic services (such as education and health care), or do not know the environment.
