  1. Human Trafficking: The Misconceptions A Review of the literature surrounding human trafficking, specifically what it says or doesn't say about male victims. Danae Zimmer

  2. Topic: Human Trafficking in scholarly literature Focus: Male victims' role in scholarly literature Target: Scholars Method: Political Economy & In-depth Interviews Goal: To bring to light the absence of male victim's in scholarly literature about human trafficking, through the absence of literature about labor trafficking and the repercussions of that.

  3. Literature Review • Gendered Discussions of Human Trafficking • Exclusion of men • Focus on sex trafficking --> women • Statistical Reality of Men in Human Trafficking • Lack of labor trafficking • No agreement on what constitutes human trafficking • The number of men actually involved in trafficking (sex and labor) as victims/ survivors.

  4. Political Economy • Relationship between the economy and trafficking. • How sweatshops and migrant farm workers play into it • Are these considered to be forms of trafficking?

  5. In-depth Interviews • Florida Farmworkers Association • Jeannie Economos- Pesticide Safety and Environmental Health Project Coordinator • Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking • Giselle Rodriguez- State Outreach Coordinator

  6. Conclusion/ Discussion It appears that the lack of a decisive definition about what constitutes human trafficking (sweatshops/ migrant farm work) as well as the one-sided discussion that typically only involves sex trafficking keep men uninvolved except as perpetrators.
