ABSTRACT
The research on the perspectives of undergraduates towards human trafficking in Nigeria provides valuable insights into the awareness, knowledge, attitudes, experiences, and socio-economic factors influencing their views on this pressing issue. The study utilized a mixed-methods approach, combining surveys and focus group discussions to capture a comprehensive understanding of undergraduates' perspectives. The findings revealed that while many undergraduates demonstrated varying levels of awareness about human trafficking, there were significant knowledge gaps regarding the forms, dynamics, and consequences of human trafficking. Attitudes and perceptions towards victims of trafficking ranged from empathy and concern to victim-blaming beliefs influenced by societal norms and stereotypes. Additionally, some undergraduates reported indirect encounters or experiences related to human trafficking, highlighting the proximity of this issue within their communities.
