Child Trafficking in South Africa: Exploring the Myths and Realities
But where do all these claims and exaggerated figures come from? One of the report’s authors, Rebecca Walker, a postdoctoral researcher at the African Centre for Migration and Society at the University of the Witwatersrand, said human and child trafficking by its very nature is “a hidden crime”. Africa Check debunked this. It found that there was no increase in supply or demand for sex work ahead of or during the World Cup, and that the then Department of Justice and Constitutional Development didn’t record a single case of trafficking during that time.
Walker said: “I think generally the lack of data, or the lack of real understanding of what’s going on allows for this kind of bigger and bigger bubble of guesses and estimations, which suits the government in many ways because for as long as we can talk about it being trafficking, we don’t have to talk about why unaccompanied children, for example, can’t access documents, or why they are so vulnerable, or when they are crossing [borders] because of the lack of safe ways to cross, and that sort...
This was definitely written from an air conditioned office in a leafy suburb. Try doing real research in places you don’t visit frequently, if at all, to get a real view of the South Africa the rest of us live in.
There is no fake trafficking , did you report last week incident were Nigerians tried to snatch little school girl in Rusternburg. How many children go missing everyday. Stop it with bullshit reporting
Now it’s fake?
Hahahahahaha go research more
Sometimes we need not to rely too much on research and stats because they can be misleading sometimes.
