Abstract

This project aims to create an educational website about the dangers of human trafficking. Specifically, this website is directed toward families in Africa and the Middle East who are most at-risk. The website will be accessible in many languages, easy to navigate, and interactive. Though there is copious online information about human trafficking, nothing is curated for people in Africa and the Middle East. To build this website, our team split into subsections to research and gain information. My topic of research is under the “Human Experience” lens and focuses on the mental and physical health impacts of victims.
