Deep dives
Significance of Australia and New Zealand in Trafficking
Australia and New Zealand are increasingly recognized as pivotal battlegrounds in the fight against sex trafficking and prostitution. The podcast emphasizes the lessons learned from the filmmakers' prior research, particularly in Sweden, which has adopted the abolition model to combat trafficking effectively. This model criminalizes the purchase of sex, a significant departure from the fully decriminalized approaches seen in countries such as the Netherlands, Australia, and New Zealand. As a result, these two countries have seen a notable rise in trafficking linked to their lenient prostitution laws, prompting a push for more effective legislation.
