“I have just started a new project this week: my boss at SISHA was hired for a consultancy by the UNODC to prepare an assessment of human trafficking in Cambodia. I am working on the legal part of the final report, so I’m looking at statutes and laws that pertain to trafficking in any way like labor law, contract law, migration, criminal law, and then looking at how those laws are enforced (if they are enforced). I’m also looking at the criminal prosecutions and assessing how the prosecutions unfold. And I’m looking at the way the government regulates, monitors, or streamlines NGOs and how the government itself takes preventative measures. The report is assessing whether Cambodia should and could use a victim referral mechanism, which would streamline what is a chaotic landscape of services for victims.  It’s really a good project because I am getting exposure to the human trafficking issue from all sides in this country. I absolutely love SISHA. I feel like I’ve had very substantive work the whole time- not always “purely” legal but useful all the same.”
