Understanding Human Trafficking Risk Factors in Nepal’s Foreign Employment Sector Policy Brief

This policy brief explores: 1) prevalence of trafficking in persons (TIP) indicators among Nepali workers while participating in international labor migration, and 2) factors that place migrant workers at the risk of trafficking. These are important factors given that hundreds of thousands of Nepali workers participate in foreign employment every year and existing studies/media reports point to a nexus between foreign labor migration and TIP in Nepal.
