The U.S. Department of State's Trafficking in Persons Report

The U.S. Department of State's Trafficking in Persons (TIP) Report is an annual assessment that evaluates how countries are combating human trafficking. It categorizes nations into tiers based on their efforts to prevent trafficking, protect victims, and prosecute offenders. The report highlights best practices and areas needing improvement, encouraging countries to strengthen their laws and enforcement. Its goal is to raise awareness and foster global action to end modern slavery, ensuring victims receive help and traffickers are held accountable, thereby promoting human rights and safety worldwide.
