An Examination of Non-Profit Organisation Response to Human Trafficking: The Case Study of Durban KwaZulu-Natal

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to consider the impact posed by the occurrence of trafficking incidents. This study adopted a qualitative research approach. The Non-Profit Organisation (NPO), namely: Umgeni Community Empowerment Centre in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal Province was adopted to solicit the perceptions on responding to this subject. This study consisted of 12 purposively sampled participants, furthermore, Face-to-Face semi-structured interviews was used in this study. The findings of this paper indicate that more resources and improved technology are required for related cases to be addressed and responded upon effectively by the UCEC NPO of KZN Province, bringing into light that an organisation alone does not have power to stop human trafficking but collaboration ensures an improvement on this issue. More accessible technological resources and collaboration allow protection to the vulnerable ones towards this global scourge.
