Uganda’s current population is approximately 46, 946, 576, as of May 2021. The country’s growing population has majorly contributed to breeding fertile grounds for the crime of human trafficking, which targets vulnerable populations that are faced with the grim of economic disparities and lack of employment opportunities. Trafficked victims are reported to be subjected to forced labor, sexual trafficking, human sacrifice and removal of body organs for sale. Additionally, Uganda’s centralized location at the heart of the Greatlakes region bordering the Democratic Republic of Congo, South Sudan, Rwanda, Kenya and Tanzania further makes it a pivotal transit and destination port for trafficking victims. According to the New Vision (2018), a total of 50 girls and women are trafficked daily from Uganda to several destination points globally. Combating the novel and rapidly growing activity of transnational crime, partly requires an in-depth assessment of the criminal justice needs of communities—an approach that is vital for linking needs with institutions, strengthening alignment of criminal justice action points and enacting robust criminal laws.
