Trafficking of Indonesian women and children is an increasingly recognized human rights violation. Although many articles have been written and research on related topics conducted, the information has yet to be consolidated or analyzed as a whole. The purpose of this report is to consolidate the information that already exists about trafficking in Indonesia into one comprehensive report and disseminate this information widely. It is anticipated that this report will be helpful for people working on counter trafficking in Indonesia, as well as people interested in trafficking worldwide.

Sukina Hammond's father had a long history of violence against his wife. When he battered the little girl to death in 1988, the incident led to the belated realisation that domestic violence has its hidden victims — the children. This study arose from the need for child care practitioners to have a better understanding of the experience of families living with domestic violence. The research was carried out at NCH Action For Children Family Centres around Britain, using questionaires supported by in-depth interviews with mothers and their children.

Every year a million children on our vulnerable planet are exploited for sexual and pornographic purposes, bartered or sold like slaves to meet the unflagging demand of those predators of the innocent, the paedophiles, playing an ever growing part in the vast world of sexual tourism. In fact, the data on this grim phenomenon show it spreading ever wider, with increasingly disquieting future prospects and an appalling escalation in blood-chilling episodes.
