The digital library http://www.childtrafficking.com is a South Asia - based internet platform and digital library that provides, on one dedicated website, the tools that are needed to tackle a complex phenomenon that does not lend itself to easy answers. The website avoids moralism and ideology, and instead presents studies and reports founded on hard research, and informed by the experiences of people working in the front lines. All forms of trafficking are addressed, including trafficking for labour purposes. The website focuses on children, and includes the latest information on strategies for trafficking prevention, as well as the rehabilitation and reintegration of victims of trafficking. http://www.childtrafficking.com is regularly updated and invites contributions, comments and criticism from those who make use of the service.
A team of three activists, led by Reinhard Fichtl, is searching for documents, assessing quality of papers submitted, and overseeing the technical procedures to keep the digital library updated. The whole work is volunteer-based, driven by the spirit to provide access to a huge collection of studies, reports and research in order to promote the fight against contemporary slavery.
