Presented by Florrie R. Burke
“Trafficking in persons,” “human trafficking,” and “modern slavery” are umbrella terms —often used interchangeably — to refer to a crime in which traffickers exploit and profit at the expense of adults or children by compelling them to perform labor or engage in commercial sex. Using domestic and international cases to illustrate her extensive experience in working with trafficked persons, Florrie Burke will share her stories of more than 25 years as consultant, expert witness, member, and chair of many national and international organizations fighting to eliminate the tragedy of human trafficking here in the USA and around the world.
