Abstract: Efforts to identify child traffickers, rescue victims of Child Trafficking (CT) and facilitate a smooth reunification of children with their families remain important child protection components of the CT crisis in Ghana. This study utilizes the experiences of practitioners in three (3) regional offices of a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) – International Needs Ghana, that is at the forefront of implementing national strategies aimed at protecting and safeguarding the welfare of children.
