Human Trafficking Cases in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan in the Years 2009-2019
Human trafficking is considered a stark violation of basic human rights and freedoms and one of the major international issues which have strained the international community in terms of prevention and protection of human trafficking victims. Human trafficking increased during the past three centuries due to poverty, unemployment, armed conflict, the collapse of some political regimes, technological advancement, and the dysfunction or improper enforcement of some legislations. Hence, it became with its various forms, one of the most important elements of organized international and transnational crimes, including exploitation in prostitution, all forms of sexual exploitation, forced or compulsory labor, removal and trade of organs, slavery, and modern slavery in the form of debt bondage (economic exploitation).
This study analyses the state of human trafficking in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan for the years 2009 - 2019 according to a procedural model prepared by the committee mandated with researching and analyzing human trafficking cases in Jordan.
The study was conducted as part of a project funded by Kvinna, Kvinfo, Im and has been printed with the financial assistance of Heinrich Boell Foundation- Palestine and Jordan office.
