Zusatztext "This is an essential read for anyone working with trafficked young people. It couples extensive coverage of the key issues with heartrending accounts from young victims! showing the reality of their appalling experiences. This valuable and wide ranging resource covers everything from the relevant legislation to the effective use of interpreters and how to manage disclosures." Sue Berelowitz! Deputy Children's Commissioner for England"This book provides insightful treatment of the complex challenges that face practitioners in identifying and responding to the devastating phenomenon of child trafficking. Whilst clearly located within the child protection framework! the authors find that effective intervention will be sensitive to young people's developing agency as they transition into adulthood. After careful exploration of how western constructs like 'childhood' and 'home' may act to obscure an individual's lived experience! they call for relationship based approaches to help young people overcome the true impact of human trafficking on their lives."
