Documentary abstract — original language

an assembly of several hundred Afghan women drafted the Declaration of the Essential Rights of Afghan Women, stating in Section One that "poverty and the lack of freedom of movement pushes women into prostitution, involuntary exile, forced marriages, and the selling and trafficking of their daughters." 4In addition, the U.S. Department of State identified Afghanistan as a country with a significant trafficking problem in its 2002 "Trafficking in Persons" report.The country was placed in Tier III due to a lack of government initiatives to combat the practice.This designation by the U.S. State Department made Afghanistan a 2003 candidate for non-humanitarian and non-trade-related sanctions, dependant on improvements. 5 The 2003 TIP report, however, placed Afghanistan in a special category for transitional governments where there is "no effective central government or the central government does not exercise full control over the country." 6Retroactively, Afghanistan would not be judged on government effort to combat trafficking, or on the actions or inaction of previous regimes.The intention of this data gathering effort is to increase the understanding of the phenomenon in Afghanistan, to encourage actions to halt the practice, and provide information that can be applied for effective prevention and assistance activities.The data presented are a reflection of reports and information gathered from Afghan NGOs, community groups and activists, victims, international organizations operating in Afghanistan and neighbouring countries, Afghan government officials, and 3 Trafficking in Persons
