Legal and Institutional Framework and Measures to Curb International Human Trafficking For Sexual Exploitation

---

English Research Paper – 7, published by the Korean Women’s Development Institute in 2014 and compiled by Deuk-kyoung Yoon, Mi-hye Chang, and Sun-young Park, is a comparative study of the legal and institutional frameworks for combating international trafficking in persons for sexual exploitation. With a cover design featuring institutional buildings against a purple and gray backdrop, the publication emphasizes a policy-based approach and formal research in responding to transnational trafficking. It maps international legal instruments such as the Palermo Protocol, analyzes good practices from various countries on criminalization, prevention, victim protection, and law enforcement cooperation, and evaluates the effectiveness of South Korea’s legal and institutional framework in addressing trafficking in women for sexual exploitation. The study highlights challenges in victim identification within the entertainment industry, gaps in the prosecution of transnational networks, and the need for a victim-centered approach that includes reparation services, residency permits, and non-criminalization. Recommendations include harmonizing legal definitions, strengthening national referral mechanisms, training officials, and international collaboration to break the chain of demand. Aimed at policymakers, academics, law enforcement, and international organizations, this research paper serves as an important reference for strengthening the legal and institutional architecture of anti-trafficking that is more responsive to the complexities of human trafficking for sexual exploitation at the global level.
