Causes of trafficking

Some causes of trafficking include:

lack of employment opportunities

organized crime and presence of organized criminal gangs

regional imbalances

economic disparities

social discrimination

corruption in government

political instability

armed conflict

uprooting of communities because of mega projects without proper sttlement and Rehabilitation packages.

Profitability

Growing deprivation and marginalization of the poor

Insufficient penalties against traffickers

Lax law enforcement on global sex tourism industry

Sex trafficking in minors is fueled by demand (ie, profitability) from edophiles.

According to the UN a major factor that has allowed the growth of sexual trafficking is "Governments and human rights organizations alike have simply judged the woman guilty of prostitution and minimized the trafficker's role.

Driven by demand; demand is high for prostitutes and other forms of labor in host countries; therefore there is a very profitable market available to those who wish to become handlers.
