The second annual Interdisciplinary Conference on Human Trafficking will be held at the University of Lincoln Nebraska this September. They are seeking academic research papers to present and discuss at the conference. E. Benjamin Skinner, expert and author of A Crime so Monstrous: Face to Face with Modern-day Slavery, will be the keynote speaker. I am considering submitting my research proposal: Hope and Light: A View through the Lens of Human Trafficking Victims. My aim is to uncover some truths about human trafficking by giving cameras to rescued victims and letting them tell the story through photography. The common name for this type of research is photovoice. It's a really cool concept and at this point, it is just a proposal, but I would love to be able to put it into practice some day-maybe this is my chance!
