The department of crisis studies at the center for strategic and international studies held a virtual seminar on “The phenomenon of human trafficking in Iraq post-2003” chaired by Dr. Alaa Abdul Razzaq who addressed this topic of utmost importance in our country and its criminalization in the middle of the 20th century. He stated that this phenomenon as a kind of slavery existed since ancient times in many societies where slaves did not receive their freedom and rights until President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863 as the American nation approached its third year of bloody civil war.<\/p>\n
The researcher stressed that a number of civil society organizations, especially those concerned with human rights are supposed to conduct an awareness campaign aimed to clarify the dangers of this phenomenon in terms of preserving the structure of the Iraqi family and immunizing families who are under the poverty line from falling into the clutches of human traffickers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
