Referring to the Piedmont area, victims originate from Nigeria, Romania, Morocco, China, and other countries. Female victims are often subjected to sex trafficking in Italy after accepting promises of employment as waitresses, dancers, singers, models, or caregivers. Nigerian women and girls are subjected to sex and labor trafficking through debt bondage and coercion through voodoo rituals

1. the urgent need to develop innovative activities in combating trafficking in human beings for sexual exploitation;
2. the need to collect data to properly understand the phenomenon;
3. the need to train future legal practitioners aware, prepared to act in this context and motivated to act for social justice and respect for rights that are denied.
