"Frågan är liten men nöden är stor” : En intervjustudie om frivilligorganisationers arbete med människohandelsoffer för sexuella ändamål / "A small question that causes huge suffering" : A study about how non-governmental organisations work with trafficking for sexual exploitation

This study examines how victims of trafficking, without residence, is handled by non-governmental organisations. The aim is to describe how much capacity non-governmental organisations have to give these victims the support they need. The empirical material is based on 7 qualitative interviews with people working at different non-governmental organisations. The people that we interviewed work either as coordinators in leading positions, or in direct contact with victims of trafficking for sexual exploitation, who don’t have residence. A qualitative thematic analysis is done and the analysis and discussion is based on the theoretical perspective of new institutionalism in organisation theory. Concepts on collaboration and professionalization are also used. Finally, the impact of globalization on social problems and social work is addressed. The results show the importance of collaboration between organisations, but also with the authorities in the society was identified by the results. Additionally, the effect of the globalization has formed new, complexed social problems for the societies to battle. This requires an international understanding of how social problems must be solved, where collaboration between countries becomes important as well. This result leads to a conclusion that non-governmental organisations take a great responsibility when it comes to these victims.
