However, most of the countries respond to the problem of child trafficking from legal perspective alone. They declare it an act of violence and focus on prosecuting the offenders. Such approach is limited in its scope as it ignores to probe into the underlying factors of the problem and hence, lacks the appropriate and long term effective strategy of its resolution. The issue of child trafficking is rooted in the multidimensional factors associated with the socio-economic, political, cultural, and educational aspects. It is inevitable to explore and analyze these factors for comprehensive and everlasting solution of the problem. In this context, the present study is designed to investigate the economic factors associated with child trafficking. The study is based on survey carried out in Peshawar, the provincial capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. A sample of 392 respondents is selected through a stratified random sampling technique from the list of lawyers, crime reporters, and academicians.enInternational ResourcesPakistanPeshawarchild abusepolicyChild abuserisk factorsFamilyOpinion LeadersThe economic position of family and its relation with child trafficking: A study from the perspective of policy analyst and expertsArticle
