SHI launches investigations to uncover sexual predators and expose marketplaces of victimization around the world. Our Predator Project focuses on profiling and punishing those who prey on and profit from exploiting vulnerable women and children.
SHI created the Predator Project in 2003 as part of an international movement to identify traffickers and their victims. This effort collaborates with local law enforcement, government officials, and with the public by disclosure of information.
Strategy involves exposing the perpetrators that create demand for sex-trafficking. We aim to bring justice for the victims and prosection of the predators by following a “three Ps” approach:
Prevention: developing public awareness campaigns to help educate others and raise awareness of sex-trafficking, especially as it relates to demand.
Prosecution: researching and gathering information for law enforcement about how predators work, to help dismantle trafficking operations around the world.
Protection: partnering with local non government organizations (NGOs), boosting their capacity to assist victims of sex trafficking.
