Measures taken by the United Nations remain insufficient in promoting anti-trafficking norms targeting human trafficking for sexual exploitation. This study has focused on measures promoted by regional organizations in Europe (European Union) and Southeast Asia(Association of Southeast Asian Nations) and conducted in depth interviews with human rights policymakers. This study has revealed the emergence of new regional policy-networks targeting human trafficking but has demonstrated the various conflicts among the involved state-society actors.
