  • Stakeholders Submission on Human Trafficking to OHCHR for UPR on November 23, 2010
    Mongolia - Stakeholders Submission on Human Trafficking to OHCHR for UPR on November 23, 2010 1. In prepration for the UPR submission by stakeholders, 8 NGOs that are actively involved in combating human trafficking have gathered 3 times at the Human Rights and Development Center to finalize the draft of the present report that was reviewed at two meetings assembling representatives of 40 NGOs. The present report was completed by the the Human Security Policy Studies Centre (hereinafter to be referred to as “HSPSC”). 2. The shift of Mongolia from a one party system with a centralized economy to a democratic market oriented society in 1990 had induced the crime of trafficking in persons, specifically of young girls and women. Though democracy had opened to Mongolian citizens many opportunities for enjoying human rights and freedoms such as the right to study and work abroad it also had triggered negative trends and instigated new types of crime. 3. Unemployment and poverty/low income caused by the transition period that started in 1990 had become the main reason for instigating human trafficking within and out of the country, specifically of women and children. According to official records only 1 case of human trafficking was recorded in 2001. In 2008 300 human trafficking cases were recorded and investigated.1 However we assume that these statistics do not correspond to the reality. 4. The forms of human trafficking in Mongolia are as follows: a. Sexual exploitation b. Labor exploitation c. Fraudulent marriage 5. Sexual Exploitation and Human Trafficking: Mostly young girls and women are vulnerable to cases of sexual exploitation.

  • Sex Work and Gender Equality, NSWP
    POLICY BRIEF Sex Work and Gender Equality Global Network of Sex Work Projects 1 Sex Work and Gender Equality Introduction This policy brief highlights the linkages between sex workers’ rights and gender equality. It argues the women’s movement must meaningfully include sex workers as partners. It advocates for a feminism that recognises sex workers’ rights as human rights and highlights shared areas of work under an international human rights framework. Ultimately, there can be no gender equality if sex workers’ human rights are not fully recognised and protected. Sex workers’ rights activists, feminist allies and human rights advocates have long held that the Ultimately, there can be no agency of sex workers must be recognised and gender equality if sex workers’ protected, that all aspects of sex work should be decriminalised, and that sex work should be human rights are not fully recognised as work and regulated under existing recognised and protected. labour frameworks. Given that the majority of sex workers are women and many come from LGBT communities, protecting sex workers’ rights is imperative to achieving gender equality as defined under The Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW).1 Sex workers and their allies recognise that the discrimination and violence sex workers face are a direct result of the criminalisation of their work and clients, and that structural inequality, such as the feminisation of poverty, gender- and sexual identity-based discrimination, casualisation of labour, and restrictive migration laws, are responsible for reproducing harmful conditions within the sex industry.2 These same factors fuel labour migration and human trafficking, which are distinct from each other and from sex work.

  • A Human Rights-Based Commentary on UNAIDS Guidance Note: HIV and Sex Work (April 2007)
    A Human Rights-based Commentary on UNAIDS Guidance Note: HIV and Sex Work (April 2007) September 2007 Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network 600-1240 Bay Street Toronto, Ontario M5R 2A7 Canada +1 416 595-1666 www.aidslaw.ca Executive summary The April 2007 UNAIDS Guidance Note: HIV and Sex Work (“the Guidance Note”) is inconsistent with previous UN statements on the central importance of respecting, protecting and fulfilling the rights of sex workers in programs and policies related to sex work and HIV. The Guidance Note fails to consider seriously the precarious human rights situation of sex workers, and the way abusive and violent policing and ill-conceived national laws undermine sex workers’ rights. It also fails to discuss the human rights of sex workers as workers, including their right to work, their right to a livelihood of their choosing, and their right to workplace safety. The Guidance Note implicitly rejects UNAIDS’ earlier emphasis on improving the situation of sex workers by empowering them to take control of their work conditions, instead emphasizing alternative livelihoods (but without offering any real-life examples of successful alternative livelihood programs, or discussing the human rights pitfalls of these approaches). The Guidance Note is generally weak on practical measures that should be implemented broadly to ensure universal access among sex workers to comprehensive HIV prevention and treatment services, including sustained access to condoms, lubricant, HIV information and peer education. The document’s focus on reduction of demand for sex work as an HIV prevention strategy is misguided. Criminalizing or otherwise repressing the purchase of sexual services can increase the risks of HIV for sex workers by driving sex work underground and limiting the choice of working conditions and the choice of clients.

  • 95 HUMAN TRAFFICKING in MONGOLIA by Alec E. Metz (USA
    The Mongolian Journal of International Affairs Number 13, 2006 HUMAN TRAFFICKING IN MONGOLIA By Alec E. Metz (USA) Human trafficking in Mongolia is a difficult problem to monitor. For illegal trafficking, there are few if any statistics available. One estimate, by the Human Rights Commission in Mongolia, postulated that by the end of 2002 over 200 women had been trafficked.1 Women are the primary victims of trafficking in and out of Mongolia. What we do know is that human trafficking there is on the increase, and that to effectively counter the threats posed by it, the problems that lead to such dire situations must be understood. In addition, the threats posed by trafficking itself must be studied in order to prevent such abuses in future. Fig. 1- Six Dimensions of Human Trafficking in Mongolia2 Nature of Threat Threat to the individual caused Threat to the state caused by by human trafficking in human trafficking in Mongolia Mongolia Values threatened Physical, psychological safety, International reputation, traditional views of femininity border safety, rule of law and the family Whose values Women trafficked and their The state in general, agencies families & friends such as police, border security Sources of threat Traffickers, pimps, customers, as Collusive officials, well as collusive officials unmonitored borders, welcoming foreign governments Means to counter Education and awareness, Less corrupt officials, threat eventual economic development destruction of criminal networks Control of means The individual, families, the Law enforcement agencies, education system, economic border and passport agencies, development agencies countries of destination Fiscal responsibility State agencies, foreign aid National government, other organizations, federal programs regional governments 1 “Mongolia”.
