Asean And Trafficking In Persons: Using Data As Tool To Combat Trafficking In Persons

---

This joint publication by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and ASEAN serves as a technical resource underscoring the critical role of data in combating trafficking in persons across Southeast Asia. The cover design, with its muted beige tone and background resembling databases and tables, visually emphasizes that accurate, disaggregated, and comparable information is the foundation of effective anti-trafficking policy. The content maps key challenges in TIP data collection among ASEAN Member States, including divergent legal definitions, fragmented recording systems, limited cross-border data sharing, and gaps in victim-sensitive data governance. It outlines ethical principles for data collection that prioritize victim safety, standardized indicators, personal data protection, and secure information-sharing mechanisms among law enforcement, ministries, and service providers. Using an evidence-based approach, the publication demonstrates how data can be leveraged to identify recruitment patterns, trafficking routes, profiles of perpetrators and victims, and to measure the effectiveness of 4P interventions: Prevention, Protection, Prosecution, and Partnership. Supported by good practices and technical recommendations, it advocates for the harmonization of national data systems with ASEAN frameworks to strengthen investigations, prosecutions, policy formulation, and resource allocation. Intended for policymakers, law enforcement agencies, national statistical offices, ASEAN anti-trafficking focal points, researchers, and international organizations, this publication is a key reference for building a measurable, coordinated, and accountable regional response to trafficking in persons.
