The Presence of foreign women in Japan’s sex industries has been a common sight for some time now. Those women are brought from ‘country of origin’ into Japan so called ‘destination country’ through hidden routes of trafficking. Under this situation, not only cooperation between ‘country of origin’ and ‘destination country’, but also sharing of experience and information among ‘destination countries’ is inevitable. In this symposium, resource persons invited from United Kingdom, Cambodia, and Japan will share updated information on the issue aiming to promote cross-border network on the prevention of human trafficking and protection for the victims in Asia.
