Community Member Group 

All four groups were aware of the training organized by AMK on trafficking of girls and 

interpersonal communication. They said that a four  day training was organized for their 

daughters.  

All the groups expressed the importance of the training organized by AMK on trafficking 

of girls. They felt that the training had made the community aware of different aspects of 

trafficking of girls such as prevention measures for trafficking, signs indicative of 

traffickers, and legal aspects of trafficking. 

They further said that the training had empowered the girls and community and helped 

them prevent trafficking attempts.   

Community members were asked about the impact on community members of  the 

training provided by AMK on trafficking of girls and interpersonal communication. 

When asked if they found any impact on their daughters, all the groups said that they 

sensed positive changes in their daughters. According to them, after the training their 

daughters were more aware of trafficking of girls issues (prevention measures, signs 

indicative of trafficking), they shared the knowledge they gained in the training with their 

mothers, sisters, friends and family members, and they gained confidence from the 

training and were able to interact with their parents more openly. They were also able to 

discuss among their friends different issues that they thought were important. 

According to the CMGs, the training provided  by AMK also showed positive change in 

the community. The people had become aware of trafficking of girls issues. They started 

to show concern about events in which girls disappeared from the village and started to 

think about and discuss the past events where girls had disappeared or had been trafficked 

from their village. The people who had not been interested in participating in the group 

meetings, started to participate in group meetings and to get involved in the groups 

formed by the AMK. The parents were also convinced that they should not marry off 

their daughters in haste. Many people even received the
