USAID

The US Agency for International Development (USAID) is experiencing severe impacts from funding cuts and aid payment pauses. These measures have disrupted humanitarian relief and anti-human-trafficking efforts, leading to chaos among staff and organizations helping trafficking survivors. Services for victims are being limited, investigatory work into criminal groups is dwindling, and some organizations are ceasing operations. These issues embolden criminal groups and impact safe rescue operations, putting at risk thousands who are entrapped in scam compounds across Southeast Asia and face violence and coercion into digital fraud activities.
