International Labour Organisation/International Programme on the Elimination of Child Labour (ILO/IPEC). (2004). Rapid Assessment of Trafficking in Children for Labour and Sexual Exploitation in Albania. 63 p. Albania has experienced huge political, economic and social transformations since the mid-nineties and has faced a number of challenges never experienced before. "Among these challenges, one that deserves special attention is child trafficking, unknown until 1990 because extreme isolation made impossible any international exchange. Evidence shows that, after 1990, girls especially were trafficked from Albania to European countries for exploitation; between 1992 and 2002, an estimated 4,000 children were trafficked, mostly from Gypsy families."

National Human Rights Commission of India. (2004). A Report on Trafficking in Women and Children in India 2002-2003. 455 p. "The main concern of the National Human Rights Commission in commissioning this study was to check the disturbing trend in the reported alarming rise in trafficking. Press, police and NGO reports on trafficking had given a clear and unequivocal indication that buying and selling of women and children for sexual and non-sexual purposes was an expanding activity and involved gross violation of human rights. What was even more worrisome was the indication that India was fast becoming a source, transit point as well as a destination area for traffickers."

Blanchet, T. et al. (2003). Bangladeshi girls sold as wives in North India. 59 p. "The report is based on the study of 112 Bangladeshi girls and women who were purchased to serve as wives to men of Uttar Pradesh or other parts of North India. In most cases, parents had consented to the marriage but were not aware of the sale. The obligation to marry a daughter early and the impossibility for poor parents to meet dowry demands were the main push factors."
