Human Trafficking and Lived Experience : Psychological Perspectives on Survivors’ Stories

Human Trafficking and Lived Experience draws from extensive interviews with survivors of human trafficking, offering best practices for meaning-making through storytelling. Exploitation in human trafficking has been vastly studied and discussed across various disciplines, but this book focuses on the power of stories: how to use them wisely, without retraumatizing survivors, but instead fostering their empowerment and resilience. This is a vital guide for students and practitioners in cultural psychology, counseling, social work, and gender studies, as well as leaders in non-profit organizations and anti-trafficking task forces.
