5.2 Frequency of Communicating Information about Trafficking of Girls  

Adolescent Group 

Compared with the baseline survey, the freque ncy of communication by the adolescents 

with various groups such as their friends, mothers, sisters, brothers and neighbours 

increased in the endline survey. However, the increase in the frequency of 

communication with friends (adolescent group) by the adolescents was almost non 

existent (1.5 vs. 1.1).   

It was evident from the endline survey that the adolescents communicated with their 

friends (non AGG) nearly three times (2.8) on average during the project, compared with 

the baseline survey where the frequency of communication was not even once (0.9). 

Similarly, in the endline survey, the adolescents communicated with their mothers more 

than twice (2.2) as often compared with the baseline survey where they hardly 

communicated once (0.6). Their frequency of communication with their sisters also 

increased in the endline survey compared with the baseline (1.7 vs. 0.3) (Table 5.2.1).

5.3   Information Covered on Trafficking of Girls by the Adolescent Group 

Compared with the baseline survey, the adolescents in the endline survey covered a wide 

range of information with the various groups such as signs indicative of trafficking, ways 

to prevent trafficking, legal aspects of trafficking, possible traffickers and trafficking 

affected districts.  

All the respondents (100%) communicated with others on ways to prevent trafficking, a 

high majority (70%) of the respondents communicated on signs indicative of trafficking 

and quite a considerable proportion (41%) of the respondents communicated on  the legal 

aspects of trafficking  (Table 5.3.1).
