Immigrant children on coffee and cocoa plantations in CI

The drafting of this document allows us to address a problem that the world is facing today: human trafficking, especially of children. We must be aware of the disastrous consequences of this phenomenon which has become a recurrent problem today. Child trafficking is broadly defined as "the illicit and clandestine movement of people across national and international borders largely from developing countries and some countries with economies in transition, with the ultimate goal of forcing the victim into situations of sexual or economic exploitation for the benefit of recruiters, traffickers as well as other illegal trafficking activities such as forced domestic labor, false marriages, clandestine employment and false adoptions". This evil which constitutes one of the major plagues of the world and in particular of Africa, is posed today like a true brake with the development of the Ivory Coast.
