Summary: |
In April 2018, the Ödos Project was launched, a shelter pilot initiative for the care and support
of migrant women with children promoted by a network of social organizations in Andalusia,
Spain. This initiative is designed to offer women who show signs of being victims of
trafficking the opportunity to abandon trafficking networks and to have an alternative
migration process. This criminological study aims to develop an instrument with which to
detect the risk indicators of women who are potential victims of trafficking for sexual
exploitation. To this end, risk assessment parameters have been established for shelter
residents. To create an ad hoc instrument, a four-phase study was conducted using mixed
methodology, which resulted in an improved quantitative pilot questionnaire based on
qualitative methodology. The sample used for this study comprised 41 people. Reliability
analysis confirms that the indicators used have high internal consistency. The implications
of the results for the application of prediction tools in transcultural contexts will be discussed. |
