Trafficking in human beings is a criminal phenomenon which, by nature, unfolds in a concealed way. The data on the subject are therefore rare and difficult to objectify. To deal with this invisibility, the statistical department of the Ministry of the Interior and the interdepartmental mission for the protection of women have collected information from the associations that accompanied by 2020 the victims of trafficking to sketch the profile, in a reported report. December 15.
It is apparent from nearly 2,300 people followed by a little less than thirty associations, that 77% of the victims suffer forms of sexual exploitation while 15% of them are victims of work by work and 6% are forced to commit offenses.
The overrepresented victims of sexual exploitation must be nuanced, believes the report. It is induced by the fact that most of the associations intervened with this audience and that it is “more visible and more accessible than others”, especially on the occasion of street malauds. However, for several years, the associations observe the increased use of a “prostitution housed”, as opposed to the prostitution so-called street, as well as only prostitution only “online”, in the form for example of “cam girls”, Two phenomena tend to keep victims away from associative relays that can help them.
“Transnational phenomenon”
All forms of trafficking, a majority of the victims are major, although rather young (a third is between 18 and 29 years old). The forms of exploitation of minors, which account for 7% of the accompanied victims, differ by sex. “For nine unaccompanied minor girls in ten, the exploitation is for sexual purposes, while for boys, 93% are victims of committals to commit offenses.” In the latter case, the recruitment of young people allows to diminish the criminal risk incurred. They are mainly from North and West Africa and Eastern Europe.
The report also appears that “human trafficking is a predominantly transnational criminal phenomenon, since accompanied victims are from 73 countries”. Two-thirds of them come from Africa.
Nigeriannes represent 72% of the victims of sexual exploitation identified by the associations, before the people from Latin America (12%) or Europe (5%). Among these, more than half are French.
