Trafficking could force children into work, denying them education and reinforcing the illiteracy and poverty cycles that hindered development efforts.

It could have a negative impact on public health services, including upon the return of victims of trafficking.

It was noted that such impacts of trafficking had been researched inadequately and indicators to measure effectively the impacts on families were lacking.

It was recommended that organizations focusing on migration, including the International Organization for Migration, investigate the causes of trafficking and develop comprehensive indicators for cross-country analyses.

Models for assessing trafficking flows, identifying early warning signals and assessing the impact of trafficking on countries of origin, including costs to public health systems, were needed.

Evaluations of counter-trafficking programmes should include analyses of labour market factors and the role of recruiters.

The need for effective legal measures to address trafficking in women and girls, as well as for cross-border collaboration, including on monitoring and prosecution, was also highlighted.
