Factors Influencing Domestic Human Trafficking in Africa: Protocol for a Scoping Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Human trafficking is a human rights violation in every region of the world. The African continent is not spared. Every year, millions of people experience significant health and social consequences. International organizations and governments combating human trafficking are hindered by a lack of knowledge about what factors influence domestic (within-country) human trafficking.

Objective

This study aims to conduct a scoping review to collate and synthesize literature on factors influencing domestic trafficking in Africa.

Methods

We will follow Arksey and O'Malley's framework to answer the question about reported influences on domestic human trafficking and their relative weight. The search strategy will explore PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, and Scopus. A
