Issues in Human Trafficking

Catalog description

This course seeks to define the phenomenon of contemporary human trafficking and modern day slavery as a violation of a fundamental human right. Key terminology and definitions, the causes and the scope of the problem (both locally and globally) and a biblical response will be addressed. Consideration will also be given to the physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual trauma experienced by victims of human trafficking. Transformational care practices to traffic survivors will be analyzed as well as reflection as to how to best mobilize a Christian response to human trafficking in an attempt to prevent and eradicate human trafficking.
