International Classification for Administrative Data on Trafficking in Persons

IOM, in partnership with UNODC, has developed a common international classification, the IC-TIP, that aims to facilitate the production and dissemination of high-quality administrative data relating to various aspects of the crime of trafficking in persons. The IC-TIP conceptualizes the characteristics of the individuals, events and organizations involved in a trafficking in persons case, with a view to producing easily aggregated raw data for a range of government uses and for sharing and reporting at the national, regional and international levels.

This is a background document to the Joint report of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime and the International Organization for Migration on crime statistics.
