Building an evidence base on forced labour and human trafficking in vulnerable sectors in Myanmar

The development objective of this project is to prevent forced labour and human trafficking in the private economy in Myanmar. The key output is a quantitative survey covering the nature and magnitude of forced labour and human trafficking in select parts of the country. Special focus will be given to sectors, vulnerable to labour exploitation such as domestic work. Survey information will be used to inform the Government of Myanmar and other key stakeholders about trafficking in persons (TIP) and to provide recommendations for future interventions and programming in this area. Additional support will be given to implement follow-up activities based on the recommendations and identified priorities.
