Action, means, purpose

Please consider which actions, means, and purpose(s) Quinn is experiencing.

Please click on the drop-down option below that you think best represents Quinn's experience:

  • Quinn has been forced to participate in sexual activities for and with clients. Their Purpose could be considered sexual exploitation, meaning there is an element of sex trafficking taking place. However, this is not the whole story - read on! 

  • Although labour trafficking may sound less obvious, there is an element of it happening here. Quinn's exploitation is happening within the context of their employment at Altajoy Massage and Quinn's work conditions and livelihood are affected by this exploitation, so labour trafficking with the purpose of forced labour is taking place. This isn't the whole story yet, either, though. Try one more! 

  • Mixed-type trafficking is most often comprised of simultaneous sex trafficking and labour trafficking. Quinn has signs of two Purposes: sexual exploitation and forced labour, making this a case of mixed-type trafficking. You got it!
