Hello! I am currently conducting a research for my PhD on the incidence of drug use among the sexually exploited victims of human trafficking.
The aim of the research is to identify the existing connections between drug use and sexual exploitation for the purpose of drafting specifically tailored prevention measures and assistance measures. In this context, I was wondering if you have come across this subject before or if you know existent research on the nexus between sexual exploitation and use of drugs.
Personal opinions on the subject would also be valuable as they might reflect angles of which we have not thought of analyzing before.
Thank you very much in advance for your inputs and good luck to everyone with the conducted researches!
Dear,Adina Schwartz
Dr. Adina in a simplest answer i think the connection are combination of a weak self, money and loss of mind with savagery of the human being. And good luck for you.
Best ,regards

Thank you very much for your feedback! I will take this into consideration when drafting my paper!
Best regards to you too!
Dear Adina, this is a significant theme in my current study. Much to say in response to your question. Perhaps a Skype call if you are interested. Alternatively, examples of two participants' quotes (from countless others related to drugs):
“Not every girl that’s working on the street has been trafficked but every girl that’s trafficked I believe has been subject to drugs and if she wasn’t already on drugs was forced into her drug addiction”
What makes Participant NGO 3’s “blood boil” (para. 2) is her experience that:
“…if these girls or women were not addicts before they were trafficked they’re certainly addicts after they come out of it.”
Attached also find two papers.
Best wishes Adina
