In August 2007, to address the lack of knowledge about the extent of trafficking of women and girls into and through this country, the Immigrant Council of Ireland commissioned research designed to map the extent of Ireland’s sex industry and to uncover the scale of exploitation of women and girls. The result is this report, “Globalisation, Sex Trafficking and Prostitution – The Experiences of Migrant Women in Ireland”.
