Khulisa Management Services, in partnership with LASER PULSE Purdue University, the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits), the Department of Science and Innovation (DSI), and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), conducted a national Trafficking in Persons (TIP) study between 2020 and early 2022. The goal of the study was to provide evidence on the nature and magnitude of TIP in South Africa to policy makers in the Government of South Africa (GOSA) and to development partners, implementing partners, and service providers.

The second of three policy briefs has now been published. You can read the latest policy brief, “Optimise criminal justice response, prevalence data, and research”, below.

Effectively implementing the TIP policy, putting resources and capacity behind the response, dealing with corruption, and placing victims at the centre of the response will contribute to achieving the desired outcomes to counter‑trafficking in South Africa.
