Public Health Insight
A Public Health Approach to Child Trafficking & Exploitation
What if we did a rethink of child trafficking—beyond criminology—and started seeing it as a public health issue, shaped by poverty, trauma, and the systems around us?
In this episode, we’re joined by Erin Williamson, Chief Programs and Strategy Officer at Love146, who brings two decades of experience working to keep kids safe from exploitation, as we dig into the real reasons kids become vulnerable and why true prevention means more than just catching the bad guys.
Trigger Warning:
This episode includes discussion of child trafficking, exploitation, and abuse. While the conversation is meant to inform and empower, some parts may be emotionally challenging. Please listen in a way that honors your limits. Take breaks, pause or step away if you need to. This topic matters and your wellbeing matters too.
