Trafficking in Children to Denmark - New report published by Save the Children Denmark
Very little is known about trafficking in children to Denmark. This is primarily owing to the fact that
trafficking is a clandestine endeavour - particularly when children are involved - and minors are
often equipped with false papers indicating they are more than 18 years of age. The victims rarely
come to the attention of the authorities; it is therefore impossible to completely document the
extent of the problem. Save the Children Denmark has therefore conducted a study in which we
have attempted to cast light on the trafficking in children to Denmark. This study focuses on:
1 - the actual situation regarding the trafficking in children to Denmark, and
2 - the rights and help available to children trafficked to Denmark.
