Prevent Human Trafficking Summer Program

The group Prevent Human Trafficking has an interesting summer study for any that might have a compulsion toward this kind of excellent work. Knowing about this now is fairly useless for the 08 summer. However, 09 is right around the bend. Here is a brief description.

Prevent Human Trafficking’s summer study program, running since 1999, offers unique access to some of Southeast Asia’s pre-eminent scholars, activists, organizers and government officials working at the forefront of the global anti-trafficking movement.

Participants gain vital first hand knowledge of anti-trafficking strategy and unwritten “best practices” and a deeper understanding of systemic causes of trafficking along with an appreciation of challenges in the anti-trafficking movement. Special lectures by local academics, government officials, business leaders, NGO activists, and other guest speakers will provide fresh perspectives on the real reasons there are serious threats to human security, and why men, women and children are trafficked internally in Thailand or to other countries.
