This is the breakdown of the Trafficking of Persons Prevention Bill that I outlined so I knew which parts I wanted to include in the discussion. It really helped me in organizing my thoughts and understanding the each part of the bill.

# data[].attributes.body
Here are some notes that I wrote for the draft. I included all the laws I wanted to write about and tried to further outline the rest of my paper would be organized.

# data[].attributes.body
I had to create a separate folder for each of the compositions and this helped me keep organized. It was great having Padlet to also upload these files onto because I could actually visualize the articles and see the contents of it because I had a description of it.

The image below is a snippet of the outline I created for the HCP. When I was writing this outline, I had no intention of writing more about the Devadasis because I was uncertain of where it would fit in my paper. After conducting deeper research, it finally clicked that that would be the past evidence I would focus on. This topic eventually got its own paragraph in the final draft of the HCP!

This reveals the statistics of the crimes committed in 2015. While it doesn't just have data for trafficking, I can filter through it and select the statistics that I can incorporate into my paper.

This document is going to be so important in my paper because I'm advocating for creating, in every district of India, a special policing unit whose sole purpose is to identify trafficking cases. There has been follow up on the success of this project, which will be even more reason to incorporate it into the recently drafted bill.

India's Other Virus: Human Trafficking and the Spread of HIV

Although this article was written in 2006, it discusses information that is still very relevant today. While the main concern of this article is how HIV is spreading quickly amongst those trafficked, I was able to incorporate the discussion of distrust of police authorities into my paper because that's a concept I would like to focus on. There are few reports of human trafficking incidences because there is corruption amongst the regulators of this offense.

While this topic is interesting, I initially thought that it'd have more to do with my paper, but because its focus was very specific, it was hard to tie in any of its content into my paper.
I feel that since my paper topic is lacking a lot of statistical data, whenever I find any sort of information on it, I jump to see if any of it will support my paper.

This website actually connected me to a lot of other resources concerning human trafficking in India. While some of the information was useful within this website, I ended up exploring the other links it included which contained more useful data to my area of research. It really goes into the history of human trafficking in India and the laws associated it with as well.

These websites are extremely important to the final product of my research because they contain the document I'm trying to reform. Because of this department of the Government of India and their drafting of the new bill that deals with trafficking, I am able to look at what information it needs to include and offer other information that is relevant.

This paper discusses trafficking in Bangladesh, Nepal, and India. It seems to focus more on Bangladesh and Nepal so I'm not sure much of the information will help me.
What I have noticed though, is that a lot of these papers that discuss combatting trafficking always bring up laws that address trafficking. They often discuss what was wrong with them.

This document talks about how stricter enforcement of punishment against traffickers has been done before with no effect because the police and male population generally have low regard for women. It makes me think that maybe enforcing a stricter punishment against authorities who do not report these cases may improve the situation. Overall, my general understanding is that there is absolutely low regard for girls and women in India because of cultural views which is something very difficult to reform. These cultural views are embedded in these minds and changing the foundation of how these views are perceived can not possibly be done by enforcing stricter laws.

This is the actual draft regarding human trafficking that I'm going to refer to a lot in my paper. I've learned that this bill proposes creating departments that will deal with trafficking on the district, state, and national level. This will be necessary to the development of my paper because I'm going to propose the need for a policing department whose main goal is to deal with trafficking incidences.

This paper talks about the gender inequality with the laws associated with trafficking in India. A lot of other papers also do the same, and while I understand that that's a huge reason why trafficking is so prolific, I think there needs to be a focus on changing the laws so there is stricter enforcement. It will take a lot of time to change the ways Indian culture, and other cultures for that matter, views of women and girls.

"Recommendations for India: Cease the penalization of victims of human trafficking; increase prosecutions and convictions of all forms of trafficking, including bonded labor, respecting due process, and report on these law enforcement efforts; prosecute officials allegedly complicit in trafficking, and convict and punish those found guilty; fully capacitate AHTUs by providing dedicated, trained staff, clarifying the role of AHTUs vis-a-vis other police units; encourage AHTUs to address all forms of trafficking, including forced labor of adults and children; improve protections for trafficking victims who testify against their traffickers; improve central and state government implementation of protection programs and compensation schemes to ensure that identified trafficking victims receive benefits, release certificates, and rehabilitation funds; promptly disburse government funding for anti-trafficking shelter homes and develop monitoring mechanisms to ensure quality of care; develop and implement standard operating procedures to harmonize victim identification and repatriation, and prosecution of suspected trafficking offenders when trafficking crimes cross state lines; provide funding for states to establish fast-track courts that deal with all forms of human trafficking; and require state governments to comply with the October 2012 Supreme Court judgment on bonded labor."

Cross-Border Trafficking in Nepal and India--Violating Women's Rights

# data[].attributes.body
This paper discusses the many laws in place in Nepal and India that address trafficking and explains the shortcomings of these laws. It also suggests "establishing a witness and victim protection program to guarantee the security of witnesses, victims, relatives, and human rights defenders. Protection is also required for persons investigating or carrying out advocacy programs regarding human rights abuses." It didn't occur to me that authorities who are meant to enforce these laws may require protection themselves against the trafficking industry, but this is something that I will consider when working on the Advocacy Project.

Trafficking women and children for sexual exploitation: India policy and recommendations for policy improvement

# data[].attributes.body
Although this paper doesn't give me a very comprehensive plan to reform the policies against trafficking, it does include sources that I will further research.
"The existing policies against trafficking of women and children in India are heavily skewed to the demand dimensions of the problem, with little or no attention given to the supply dimensions of the problem (World Health Organization, UNICEF, & UNAIDS 2006)." This alone tells me that I should do more research on those organizations to gain a better understanding of possible law reformations that would be effective.

With the research that I've done for the HCP, many of the scholarly articles have included a variety of possible solutions to remediate the growing number of humans trafficked. Two sources that I used in the HCP, written by Ghosh and Sarasu, include general and detailed solutions that involve improving literacy, creating awareness for this phenomenon, and stronger enforcement of the laws against human trafficking, etc. The overall consensus of most of the papers that I've read are concerned with reforming laws and those solutions aforementioned. The goal of my Advocacy Project is to explore these possible solutions and finding a realistic plan to implement those solutions that have been discussed. The difficulty in this is that the solutions are not in just one area of focus and each involve very different approaches. With the social issue, the goal would be to improve literacy and change the way women and young girls are viewed in India society. The political approach involves reforming many of the laws in place and pushing for authorities to be more strict with enforcement. The economic situation involves improving the standard of living for each individual. Each of these tasks have their setbacks and would require a careful plan that would address the human trafficking problem.

The New York Times piece did a great job with transitioning between ideas and creating a nice flow while addressing the overall purpose of the article. By acknowledging that there is a lack of data and research in regards to nail salon workers and their exposure to hazardous materials, the writer creates a sense of trust with its audience because it shows understanding and research on the topic. Integrating information from many interviews also gives this piece credibility since they're first hand account of working in a salon. The video included in the article creates an urgency because it explains all the harmful chemicals that salon workers are exposed to. Another urgency comes from the image of Dr. Hwu which reveals a face stamped with seriousness. Because he is a doctor who has dealt with patients who work in salons with similar symptoms, it shows the severity of the situation.

a) What is the thesis/main argument of the piece?
The purpose of this paper is to provide a general overview of what happens to girls and women who are trafficked and the consequences that they encounter when they become sex workers. It also provides possible preventative measures to alleviate the number of people who are trafficked.

b) What types of evidence are used?  Statistics, interviews, pie charts, something else?
There are many tables with data and images that look at certain states and what form of exploitation is practiced in each state.

c) What piece of evidence do you think is the most effective for you as a reader?   Why do you find it to be particularly effective?
There is a list with bullet points of the what goes on in major cities and I think this makes the information easier to read over because it lists out the main points.

d) How do you plan to use this source in your HCP?
I have incorporated the map of India that depicts the forms of exploitation that occurs in each state.

e) How do you know it is a scholarly source?   Look up some information about the author.  What are her/his credentials?
Christine Joffres has written many pieces on human exploitation and has been published in books and peer-reviewed journals.

I found this article by Googling "human trafficking Asia" and found this article.
This article explains how India's numbers of women and children being trafficked are rising. The image below was included in the article and it includes the rising statistics of people trafficked and includes key terms including "poverty illiteracy" which is common in India's population.
The reason this article drew my attention is because I am considering writing about India's human trafficking issue.

This Los Angeles Times article follows the story of two women who have similar and contrasting involvement in the sex trafficking industry. Sonya Sakyai is from Thailand and traveled to the U.S. initially starting off as a sex worker but eventually worked off her debt as an "indentured prostitute" and became a trafficker herself. Her work involved traveling back and forth to Thailand to recruit other sex workers to bring back to the U.S. She is currently serving her sentence in a California prison.
In Lydia Dineva's case, she was a Bulgarian native searching for work through friends of friends and found herself in Sweden forced to work as a sex worker. She eventually became pregnant but her pimp made it clear that she was not going to leave her position as a sex worker. Both of these women ended up in these positions while searching to improve their economic circumstances.
A main concern for my HCP I'd like to focus on is how to improve the overall quality of these women's lives so they don't have to turn to such alternatives in order to make a decent living.
