This report summarizes the results of three studies done to estimate the extent of human trafficking from Ukraine. The results from the three studies lead us to conclude that in the past three-five years, at least 22,000 Ukrainian citizens per year, and perhaps more than 36,000 per year, have gone abroad to work and have been enslaved in one form or another. The total number enslaved appears to be probably well in excess of 110,000. The three survey methods are probably biased so as to produce somewhat smaller numbers of victims than the actual numbers, but are nonetheless the best that can be achieved. each study will be discussed in turn with results first, and then an extensive discussion of methodology. |
