A human rights issue, Human Trafficking involves child labour, begging, and a host of other social problems. Photo: Special Arrangement
By PANKAJA SRINIVASAN – February 19, 2016
“Human trafficking is the number of people on a square meter of a traffic signal.” A doctor’s response to a question on human trafficking reinforced 24-year-old Pankhuri Agarwal’s desire to tell people about this horrific issue. “Sure, there are statistics. Here are some popular ones. According to the International Labour Organisation, human trafficking generates $150 million a year in illegal profits, and there are around 36 million victims across the world.” Pankhuri obligingly provides the numbers and follows it up with “I do not believe in statistics as these represent only the tip of the iceberg but they do help in communicating the enormity of the situation.”
Pankhuri — now studying for her Masters in Development Studies at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London, as a Felix Scholar — has just released a documentary called Freedom Matters to spread awareness about human trafficking. Along with production house The Storygraphers, she made a short film that tries to answer questions about human trafficking, why we should be bothered and how we may actually be perpetuating it. And what we can do — irrespective of our educational or professional background — to stop it.
Key aspects of implementing the right to social security include:
-
Viewing the right to social security as interdependent, indivisible and interrelated with all other human rights;
-
States’ obligation to implement a sustainable social security system through a legislative framework that provides benefits for the nine principle branches of social security namely: health care, sickness, old age, unemployment, employment injury, family and child support, maternity, disability, survivors and orphans;
-
States’ obligation to provide benefits that are adequate in amount and duration; and
-
States’ to ensure the financial and physical access of benefits to all persons, with special attention to vulnerable or marginalized groups.

Birthing a Market, A Study on Commercial Surrogacy (2012) estimates that there are currently 3000 clinics in India offering surrogacy services. Surrogacy is a 2.3 billion dollar industry annually. Around 10,000 foreign couples visit India for reproductive services each year.
Dr Nayna Patel, a frontrunner of the Indian surrogacy movement, heads the Akanksha Infertility Clinic in Gujarat, where more than 600 surrogate babies have been born. Not only does Patel see the industry growing, she is gearing up for it and is building what is being dubbed as the world's first multi-million dollar 'baby factory' in Anand, Gujarat, which will be a one-stop-destination for surrogacy. Patel predicts a 12 percent growth in the sector per year.
Whilst the rich Westerners buying surrogacy services often see the 'service' as a human right, many would argue that using poor, brown women as incubators is racist, colonialist, and akin to prostitution.
