Abstract: (2 Views) |
International efforts have laid the legal foundations for combating human trafficking, through the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime of 2000 and its additional protocol known as the "Palermo Protocol," which defined the legal concept of human trafficking and the obligations incumbent upon States Parties in terms of criminalization, Prevention, protection, and international cooperation. At the national level, Iraq has worked to translate its international obligations in this field by enacting the Anti-Human Trafficking Law No. (28) of 2012, which is an important step towards combating this crime locally. The research aimed to identify the concept of the crime of human trafficking and its elements., The study also aimed to identify ways to combat human trafficking at both the international and national levels. The researcher used the descriptive-analytical method, which was appropriate to the nature of the research title. In conclusion, the study reached several key findings, the most important of which are: The Iraqi Law No. (28) of 2012 needs legislative updates to keep pace with new methods of crime, and the study came out with a number of recommendations, the most important of which is activating the National Committee to Combat Human Trafficking and strengthening its human and financial resources.
