- W1509702255 abstract "The aim of this chapter is to present a general overview of the trafficking of women and girls (W/G) from Nepal to India for prostitution, including what is known about its history, nurturing factors and health effects as well as the ongoing activities against W/G trafficking in Nepal. By trafficking we mean “the transportation, selling or buying of women and children for (forced) prostitution within and outside a country for monetary or other considerations with or without the consent of the person subjected to trafficking” (SAARC, 2002).Trafficking and prostitution are two distinct but linked phenomena. The main objective behind the trafficking of W/G is to involve them in forced prostitution. The majority of trafficked W/G are enticed away from their homes with false promises, or unwillingly and unknowingly abducted, lured, drugged or otherwise dragged away. By law, forced prostitution is a criminal activity in Nepal. Sometimes the W/G are taken with the consent of their family and relatives. Because of poverty, illiteracy and myths of prosperity abroad, parents are motivated to consent to the migration of their daughters. No existing policy or legislative documents speak about such “voluntary” prostitution. The trafficking of W/G for the purpose of sexual exploitation occurring around the world is a deliberate and medieval human rights violation. The United Nations (UN) has stated that human trafficking is the world’s third largest criminal activity and the second most lucrative business. It is considered to be a demonstration and outcome of sexual power relations: relations in which men are dominant and women dominated (Shrestha, 1997). According to the UN, approximately four million W/G are victims of international trafficking every year for different purposes, such as labour or prostitution (, Recently, the UN Office on Drugs and Crime denounced the fact that, although the victims of sexual exploitation are predominantly W/G, in 30 percent of the countries that provided information on the gender of traffickers, women make up the largest proportion (UN Repor,t 2009)." @default.
